Gibbering nonsense that just shows again you haven't a clue about how to
do real flight planning.

If you use a map in crayon provided to you by a friend, you're not using a
certified source. If something happens on the flight, your failure to use a
certified source could be held against you by the FAA.

You've raved on and on time and again about how "safe" you are; "safer"
than real pilots who really do flight planning.

Safer than _some_ pilots who really do flight planning.

If the objective is to really simulate flying, then you need to do the
same flight planning you would do for real flight.

That depends on the part of flying that I wish to simulate. I simulate
planning to the extent that it affects safety, usually, but I don't try to
simulate any additional overhead that wouldn't be germane to that objective.

Indeed, one of the great advantages of simulation is not having to bother with
useless paperwork.
