As I've said, it sounds like you don't have your sim configured correctly.

I was going to ignore you but your stupidity really 'takes the
biscuit'.!!!!!!!!!!
There is NO WAY IN HELL you can compare using the sim, as Roger has
stated, to real life experiences.

Pc configured correctly or not the pc CANNOT generate the feeling of
fear and anxiety.
You WILL NOT die if you crash.
If you get lost in the dark or poor weather what is the worst that can
happen - 'You have crashed' - Wow I'm terrified now ;-(
You WILL NOT feel the forces of G force as you climb / descent.
You WILL NOT feel the motion of the aircraft rolling.
You WILL NOT become disorientated in a spin etc due to enginer
failure.

You WILL NOT learn to backdown you ignorant little man!!!!!!!!!!

Even motion simulators cannot generate all this as at the end of the
day you know YOU WILL NOT die in it. Same can be said for 'training
exercises' the special forces do to teach them what to do if captured
by the enemy. These 'exercises' will not kill them so the feeling of
fear wont be part of the equation and DOES NOT compare to the real
thing.

FS2004 is afterall a GAME, like it or lump it. When I use it I AM NOT
flying a plane.

Those that believe they are and are qualified to fly IRL need to seek
help or join the Mooneys.
