One interesting suggestion you (Alex) gave to me about a year ago was to hide the panel and the HUD, then try to make a complete flight from one airport to another (preferably airports I'd never been to before) following only a VFR map. In some ways, it was harder than it would be for a real pilot, since I didn't have the peripheral vision or the motion cues (I cannot feel when I'm in a slip, for example, or when I'm descending rapidly, and I cannot feel any force feedback from the controls).
