The "minus' button if what you push when you are in full speed cruise
:-) (Try it and see what happens!)

Nice thing about a sim, you can do stuff you CANT do on a real
airplane (like crash).

And that is why a sim will NEVER be like true flight. With a sim, if
you crash, you crashed and you are ok. With a real airplane, you
crashed, and that's IT! No more you. A different headspace, attitude,
whatever you want to call it.


That echoes what I said when trying to explain what FS is to someone today.
That it's ultra-realistic but the big thing that's missing is any "fear
factor". If that was present, which of course it can't be, then our
decisions while simming would of course be very different.
