Default GA is priceless

Neil Gould writes:

It's only irrelevant to simming. These effects are quite important to
real-world flying, as the pilot must counteract them to stay aloft and/or
on course.


The actual control feel is not a big factor in many aircraft and many
situations. The mass and inertia and so on are simulated correctly.

See above. The simple fact is that *no* real-world flying is independent
of motion.


Instrument flight is independent of motion.

My theory is that the ability to land a simple PC sim (MSFS) is dependent
on the ability to translate the sim's representations of control vs.
motion into something that works on the sim.


I partially disagree, as the absence of movement is probably a problem
for many pilots, especially GA pilots.
