Navigation strategy on a short flight

I agree.
I have to agree as well.
An inept pilot, with no real understanding of flight planning or
navigation, launches on a VFR trip without any plan for how to execute
the flight and no tools to monitor progress. The result is he gets
behind the airplane, gets completely lost, executes bungling routing
maneuvers to try to get oriented and ATC has to intervene to clean up
the mess before he become a danger to himself and others. MSFS did a
fairly good job of showing this pilot how inept he was.
In that respect, yes, it was a good simulation of a clueless naif trying
to fly an airplane.
