WRONG. Ignore what the plane tells you before a stall and YOU would
be dead.

One of the first things I was taught was to NOT ignore what the plane
is trying to tell you. It WILL tell you when it's ready to stop
flying BEFORE it shows on your airspeed indicator something you have
no clue about since MSFS doesn't indicate this. As others already
told you, you feel it in the controls (mushy, then shudders).

Same thing for landing, ignore what the plane when it's not ready to
land and YOU would be dead. You feel it before you see it indicated
on instruments. But of course YOU HAVE NO CLUE.

Fly the airplane correctly and you won't have to be told about an impending
stall by the airplane. If you feel an impending stall, you're already too far
behind the aircraft.

One of the first things I was taught was to NOT ignore what the plane
is trying to tell you.


It seems to have made an overriding impression upon you, as you seem to rely
upon it above all else. If you're not careful, that will kill you one day,
unless you stick to perfect VMC.

It WILL tell you when it's ready to stop
flying BEFORE it shows on your airspeed indicator something you have
no clue about since MSFS doesn't indicate this.


As I've said, if you are flying correctly, you won't get any secret messages
from the aircraft.

You may be able to get away with flying like this in a Cessna 152, but it
won't work in a 747.

As others already told you, you feel it in the controls (mushy, then
shudders).


Only after you've fallen behind the airplane.

It's a bit like saying you know you're approaching the braking limit in your
car when one of the wheels locks. That's very true, but by the time one of the
wheels locks, you're already far beyond where you should safely be. Where
there's smoke, there's fire, but it's better to avoid conditions that start
fires to begin with.

Same thing for landing, ignore what the plane when it's not ready to
land and YOU would be dead. You feel it before you see it indicated
on instruments.


You need to find other ways to fly than by the seat of your pants. Or stop
flying IFR, at least.

WRONG AGAIN. Ever hear of SLOW FLIGHT????????????

WRONG AGAIN. LANDING IS NOT IFR NOR WAS I TALKING ABOUT FLYING IN
IMC. YOU DON'T EXPERIENCE WINDSHEAR IN MSFS, DO YOU where suddenly
your controls get mushy??????????

YOU OBVIOUSLY DON'T FLY A REAL PLANE OR HAVE A CLUE ABOUT FLYING A
REAL PLANE, DO YOU or you wouldn't come up with crap like the
above.

There are many reasons for flight that require you to NOT look at your
instruments but fly by the seat of your pants. Example would be
photography, search and rescue. SO, NO I AM NOT BEHIND THE PLANE.

BUT YOU DON'T KNOW THIS because of your closed mind about MSFS
THINKING IT IS LIKE THE REAL THING!!!!!!!!!!

Unless your PC has controls with active feedback, all you will ever feel
is the spring tension.

It is impossible for any of the consumer grade PC stuff to ever feel mushy.

YOU GET MUSHY CONTROLS IN MSFS???????????? YOU DON"T HAVE CONTROLS IN
MSFS, YOU USE A JOYSTICK OR A KEYBOARD.

I don't do photography or S&R. All you really need to see visually is traffic,
and you don't need to fly by the seat of your pants at all (and you cannot,
under IFR).


THEN YOU DON'T FLY A REAL PLANE IF YOU THINK PHOTOGRAPHY ANSD S&R IS
THE ONLY TIME YOU DO SLOW FLIGHT.. YOU LAND A PLANE UNDER VFR, NOT
IFR.

SO, NO I AM NOT BEHIND THE PLANE.


Well, certainly if you scream it out, it must be so, eh?


NO, YOU CAN"T SEEM TO COMPREHEND THAT MSFS IS NOT FLYING A PLANE. IT
SIMULATES FLYING.

CORRECTION to my post above - You land a plane under VMC conditions

Almost, but not quite. Aircraft land in IMC all the time, and I've done it
many times.
