My first class in Calculus based physics, my professor did an interesting thing. We would be asked to intuit the answer to problems before we did the math to know for certain. Physics is simply not intuitive. Now, with regards to the simulation, the thing I think they failed on wasn't a lack of common sense. I think what they should have done is reproduce the results in real life using a similar jet. They relied on the model a bit too much and "Tested in production." However, as far as mistakes go, this is a pretty small one.
