I agree with Hulk on this one.
I've seen a few shows on the development of the A380 and they had some pretty advanced simulators to start training pilots on well before the thing got off the ground. Of course it isn't going to be 100% accurate, but they can come pretty close.

I'm sure this plane would be no different. Those pilots probably have hundreds of hours on the simulator well before they get into the real cockpit.
