MSFS has objectives and arbitrary rules.

Examples?

All of it's rules are objective and arbitrary, you ignorant ass. It's just a
game.

Doesn't the vendor indicate it's a game?

So do I.


You have stated in the past that you did not.


I contend it cannot be done, and as evidence, I offer that
it has never been done.

Lightning cannot strike my house, because it never has.

You're slipping. You forgot to snip the words 'evidence' and 'offer' to my
statement sound as stupid as yours.

Thank you for playing. Please try again.

The vendor, Microsoft, lists Flight Simulator as a "computer game".
This from its first version through the last.


Even MX agrees: (From his blog)

"In my own case, I tend to prefer simulation games, such as Flight
Simulator, or The Sims 2, or Second Life."

Easy and cheap - even where you live.

No, unfortunately it is not. A pilot's license with an instrument rating, for
example, would cost $20,000 to $40,000, according to pilots and instructors
I've talked to.


I think it would take you much more, because of your attitude problems. You
would also need a medical, and this might be disqualifying for you. But getting
to solo is typically done where you live for less than $2000. This alone would
be enough for you to understand what a fool you've been. . .



Can't fool me.

No need.

I'm afraid I'm not surprised. . .

Why are you afraid?

Completely mistaken - couldn't be further from the truth - as usual.

Try it, and you'll see.


Try what? Flying?
Why not you try reading? You claim to de "research" yet you are not even
capable of following a logical thread through more than two iterations. You
blat out stupid, nonsensical things.

Anyway, we have to admit it is possible to do.
I've personally seen it done. Karen Black did it in 1975. In a 747 no less.
You just talk on the radio, and the guy tells you what buttons to press.
When it comes time to land, this guy jumps out of a heliciopter and climbs in
the cockpit to land the plane.

And that, as MX explains, is "as real as it gets". . .

The no visual reverence problem was solved by Sperry eighty years ago.

Then why do pilots still crash regularly after entering IMC?

Times change.

But G1000 is so generalized that now you can no longer buy a small or
medium plane without it.

I'll worry about that when I'm in the market for an airplane.

I'm sure that more traditional avionics are available for those willing to pay
for them. I'm not willing to entrust my life to a single unproven ball of
software.

writes:

OK, 2 trivial examples, not crashing the airplane is an objective
and every place has fuel that fills the tanks to the top in zero time
when you get near the gas pump is an arbitrary rule.

Nothing requires you to avoid crashing your airplane, so that is not an
objective. I've seen people deliberately crash airplanes again and again in
the sim.

The gas pump isn't a rule, any more than a mountain is a rule.

Calling it a game avoids a lot of liability.
