I'm not sure that any of this applies to you since I don't think you ever
simulate failures or simulate flying without the autopilot doing all of

work.

I regularly fly by hand in small aircraft, but only occasionally in large
aircraft, as these practices are realistic.

No your don't, you don't fly anything but a desk


A sim only produces failures if you request them, and I usually don't,
unless
I want to practice something specific, such as engine failure. Practicing
failure scenarios is quite academic in a simulator, and doesn't serve much
purpose unless you intend to fly a real aircraft. It can be interesting
for
other reasons, though.


You how did you come to suffer the delusion that you could operate a real
aircraft in IMC.
