Default Weight and balance, ballast, trim when flying alone

You're not really flying, though.

It's good enough for me, and it's very practical.


Practical? That implies usefulness. An airplane can be flown somewhere
to accomplish something.

No matter what you "fly" in MSFS, you remain in place.

"Useful" and "Practical" only apply in support of some other function.
A manure shovel is not practical or useful in surgery, but it is very
practical and useful in a barn or a newsgroup.

MSFS may be entertaining, or even quasi-informative, but "practical"
is not an appropriate adjective.
