I think your first step is to check with the flight simulation company as they have medical requirements. Guidelines tend to be about 30cm from a source of EM radiation but this will vary depending on the source. Large electro magnets like those in scrap yards are a definite no no! Tight cockpits like a Spitfire might be more problematical than something larger than a 747. Let us know how it goes.
I have just asked my pilot son in law who trains people on the simulator he said yes you can
A;ways check but I have used a chainsaw, sit on lawn mower and power tools (electric and Petrol) with no issues.
