It's futile and it does nothing but lower the signal to noise ratio in

playing MSFS is not only equivalent, but superior to flying a real plane.
Many of us have done both so we understand the strengths and weaknesses
of each. Mxsmanic hasn't and doesn't.


All true but you have to understand that the reason he's a "superior pilot" is
that he flies the big iron that few of us have ever even sat in the cockpit
of... like the B-737. The fact that the C-172 I flew Thursday was real can't
possibly compare against his many hours managing the mighty Boeing with just a
keyboard.

You know, I fly MSFS too. But when I do it, I fly the same aircraft that I fly
in real life. I just use it to keep my instrument scan active because I don't
fly instruments enough any more to feel comfortable without some help from the
sim.

He flies the airliners so he can lord it over you. What he doesn't realize is
that flying the crappiest piece of **** on the field is still better than the
"flight experience" you get with a computer sim.

He's playing all of you guys like fish on a hook. Wise up.

I tried to tell folks last week and some people came to his defense. I suspect
now they wish they'd just followed my suggestion: Ignore the troll.

I don't think it's censorship to point out he's pretty much taken over two
newsgroups with his crossposted questions. Not that it matters that the
questions get answered. When they disagree with his preconceived ideas he just
ignores them. We should return the favor.
