In simulation, you plan as much or as little as you want. How much I plan
depends on my mood and how much time I have. There's a trade-off between
realism and the effort required to achieve it.

And yet you go on and on about how you feel it is important to fly "safe"
while playing with your simulation...

Does your toy tell you that the Citation X is not single-pilot certified?

Microsoft Flight Simulator doesn't include a Cessna Citation among its
aircraft. It's only available as an add-on (from at least two companies).

Would you knowingly initiate a flight single-pilot in an aircraft that
requires two crew?

Not in real life--that would be illegal and unsafe, as you observe. But I do
it cheerfully in simulation.

And yet you go on and on about how "safe" a pilot you are and how you would
never do anythin "unsafe" while playing your game.

Believe what you will. Flying an airplane is not that difficult for me. I
suppose it might be difficult for others.

Sorry to hear about the "bad things" that happen. Must be very distressing.

It can be, if you take your flight simulation seriously, as I do.

If you really took it seriously you would put the same effort a real pilot
does in flight planning and not "fly" airplanes that require a crew solo.

I believe I said that I use NACO charts and plates and online aviation weather
reports. That's good enough for simulation--I have no legal requirement to use
specially certified sources.

No one said anything about "specially certified sources".

You've raved on and on time and again about how "safe" you are; "safer"
than real pilots.

Yet your flight planning is "good enough".

Yeah, right.

Then it doesn't simulate turbulence does it?

Yes, it does. You can see the effect on instruments and on the view out the
window.

No it doesn't...... You THINK it does, but I know.

Remember, I use MSFS and I fly a real plane. I talk from experience.
The effect MSFS simply is not the same.

Can you qualify your experience comparing the real world and MSFS???
Exactly what is your experience to make you think MSFS accurately
simulates turbulence.

Let me guess, you won't answer.

It's unfortunate that you have this attitude. You're depriving yourself of
much enjoyment.

How do you know what I enjoy? You don't fly a plane??????

Lets see

Choice A. sit at my desktop computer and play on MSFS
Choice B Go to the airport and fly a real plane and touch real
clouds.

Survey says......

No, I resort to airway because that's how aircraft are flown in real life..

WRONG. WRONG WRONG.

Don't believe me, look up what used to be my tail number N1943L. You
don't get any real then that.

You have no clue what the real life flying is all about.

My 152 has no autopilot, and is missing some other things that I like, so
there's a limit to how much I can fly around in it before I long for something
a bit more sophisticated. It's good only for very short trips.

Why not be honest rather then lie? You don't have a 152.

You have MSFS with a 152 add on.

First sentence if you were truthful would read My MSFS 152 has no
autopilot.

The ones I flew didn't have an autopilot either but then that was real
life..
You're asking mixedup to make an honest statement ?
Good luck

It may not stop, but it has nothing to do with things you cannot foresee and
things you do not know.
