YES IT IS.


Perhaps to you, but not to everyone.

WRONG. Much to your chagrin, there is MUCH more to flying a real
plane then MSFS. As stated before, ONLY one example is inner ear
balance. I never got leans in front of my computer. I never reached
over to tune a radio in IMC on MSFS. I have never had anything bad
happened to me when I crashed in MSFS. I won't test that in real
life.


What type of aircraft was this?

I talk from experience in both the sim and real world. What is your
experience in a REAL plane (NOT MSFS or desktop computer) on an IFR
flight plan in IMC????


Well, I've certainly been a passenger on such flights, and I've never
developed the leans or spatial disorientation to an extent that would have
interfered with flying.
