Co-pilot gets sick, stewardess helps land airplane

I never reach a point where the controls get mushy except for occasional
academic experiments. I'd never allow that to happen in normal flight. I want
fat safety margins around my flight regime.

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
(VISUAL)

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

No, you have not.

The only thing you have "landed" is MSFS.

Then YOU DID NOT SIMULATE LANDING THE PLANE. Did you????????????

DUH, AUTO LAND........ HELLO, anybody out there.

PILOTS LAND THE PLANE in VMC.in the real world.

As Jim already pointed out, YOU DON'T land anything. YOU SIMULATE
LANDING on MSFS.

WHAT PART OF THAT DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND ABOUT SIMULATION?????

I've simulated all sorts of landings: hand-flown, autopilot (including
autoland), VMC, IMC, zero visibility, crosswinds, etc. The greater the variety
of situations you simulate, the more you learn.

A simulator allows you to gain experience with situations that you may never
encounter in real life. While simulation isn't perfect, the knowledge you gain
from the simulation of a specific situation is more useful than no knowledge
at all ... especially if that particular situation actually arises (I think Al
Haynes would agree with that).

DUH, AUTO LAND........ HELLO, anybody out there.

PILOTS LAND THE PLANE in VMC.in the real world.

Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't.

I think if you do a quick search on YouTube, you'll find that lots of landings
take place in IMC, including computer-controlled autolands in very low
visibility (apparently Cat IIIc autolands in zero visibility are not actually
done because of the difficulty in taxiing to the gate thereafter).

As Jim already pointed out, YOU DON'T land anything. YOU SIMULATE
LANDING on MSFS.

I land in the simulator.

WHAT PART OF THAT DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND ABOUT SIMULATION?????

I might be tempted to ask the same question.

Is there a point to this 'debate'? We know the rules of the game MX
plays, Continue if you enjoy being played.

If I make enough mistakes, yes.

I didn't say anything about it being the only time.

YOU LAND A PLANE UNDER VFR, NOT IFR.

Airplanes are landed under IFR every minute of every day. I've done autolands,
too, which have had no visual component at all.
