Sure it was over confidence, but did he have that confidence because he

read on the internet that flying MSFS was just like real life?

No. He made decisions that had nothing to do with MSFS, such as
continuing to fly longer than necessary even though he had a fuel
problem. That is just as stupid a decision in MSFS as it is in real
life, so even if he had practiced that in MSFS, it would not have made
any difference.


Or maybe he practiced the flight in MSFS and felt he could do it but the
simulator didn't simulate something correctly, like fuel burn.

And your comment that a stupid decision in MSFS is just as stupid as one in
real life is just, well, stupid.
