Sad day for Mxsmanic

If you must take sides, at least be sure to choose your friends carefully.

I'm trying to defend aspects of the sim and made that very clear on my
original post and topic change.
It was a partial defense for your comments that simulated knowledge of
aircraft systems and locations of buttons and procedures does bear
accurate resemblance to that on the real flight deck.
My comments about personally having some flight experience is true but
as I like to sim as well 'I've been tarred with the same brush'

Most of these ppl on here 'have got it in for MSFS' because of your
continual 'I know best attitude' and lack of full and detailed
responses to counter their negative replies. Because of this ANY
comment made by ANY simmer means nothing!!!!!!!! I believe if
information has been cross referenced by many accurate sources then
it's deemed, by propabilities, to be true and doesn't physically have
to be experienced by oneself. Even if we got Oskar Wagner on here, a
REAL A320 pilot and a long time FSX fan, to write about what a REAL
Airbus does Maxwell and the rest of them would say CRAP, or bOB to
discuss rotaries. Even if they said the EXACT same as us it would
mean nothing. Dudley Henriques is a real pilot too and offers his
techical knowledge to software vendors as far as I'm aware of and
worked closely with the likes of RealAir - but again that means
nothing to these ppl. I'm sure there a more 'skeletons' in this
'closet' of a forum who keep quiet!!!!!!!!!!

I used to log into this group the odd time and now remember why I
stopped as it's all pathetic. I'm out of here!!!!!!!!!!!

You two need to get a room.

No. Pilots who engage in knee-jerk dismissals of simulation were doing that
long before I was around. I've seen it frequently in conversations in which I
didn't even participate. Some pilots are just very insecure about anything
that might diminish the prestige they believe that real flying has.

Dudley Henriques is a real pilot too and offers his
techical knowledge to software vendors as far as I'm aware of and

nothing to these ppl.

I note that Dudley has a far more balanced view of simulation than some of the
more rabid, low-time, small-aircraft pilots on this newsgroup.

Why, because most do not accept the importance simulation plays in your
fantasy life?

Sim worshipers like you and Ibby would find solace on the sim and game
groups, but then you would have to accept reality.
