Second, don't pretend to know what you need learn before getting in an
airplane. As I said before, talk to flight instructors and trust their
guidance in the matter. The instructors I know say that simulation before
flying is a detriment. Why would you assume to know better?????

I use the simulator for things that the simulator is good for.

You really don't seem to be open to other folk's opinions and guidance on
things they teach. That approach will set you back in any practical training
that you do.

It could be learning style. Some people would rather learn from a
person than from a book. I'm the opposite. I would rather learn what I
can from a book, then let the person fill in the gaps or
misunderstandings. It's more efficient (for me).

Getting experience with VOR tracking in a simulator is a lot cheaper
than hands-on-training in a cockpit at $100US/hour, for example.

Good luck with that approach. After you learn to fly a real aircraft be sure
and come back here to appologize for your arrogance.

What is there to apologize for?

Does everything about flying require an instructor to be present? If
that were the case, then there would be no point in buying books, etc.

There has to be something that a simulator can offer that does not
require the instructor to be present.
