Many of those of us that actually fly aircraft have told you many

What's arbitrary in that?


Many of those who fly aircraft have little or no experience with
flight simulation. I think it's a macho thing.

Some of us have a lot more sim experience than anyone whose sim experience
began with the use of personal computers. And, we, too have told you that
MSFS isn't all that correct in its representation of flight. Yes, it's can
be fun, interesting and useful to those who also fly real planes, but
that's a different matter altogether.
