You wouldn't, but a simulator is more fun.


Nope, and to be of any use the simulator has to fully simulate the cockpit
of the real thing, like the flaps being a lever on the floor, for example.



You have said time and again you have never flown any airplane, much less
a different model after a read of the manual for the new airplane.


I simply meant that I've actually read the manufacturer's documentation for
the 747 (well, parts of it).


What you implied was you flew a new model of airplane with reading the
manual as your only instruction so your statement was deliberate deception.
