No, it does not. Other things can produce the same sensation. You
have no way of knowing which movement produced the sensation unless
you cross-check against instruments or the world outside the window.

The sensation in real airplanes allows you to fly more precisely and
safer.

The sensation in real airplanes gives some pilots a false sense of
security.

A blazingly stupid comment that shows you know nothing about real
flight.

I'll ask again: Can you fly safely with your eyes closed, relying only
on sensations, and selectively ignoring or accepting the sensations
you feel?

It only takes a couple of hours in a real airplane to learn to
interpret what they are and what they mean.

Sometimes it takes an accident to learn that you can't trust those
sensations.

That's not what the "literature" says.

That's exactly what it says. Trust your instruments, ignore your
sensations.

No, it doesn't.

Fjukkwit.
