No time is spent teaching pilots "clever ways to estimate distances"
as this would be inconsistent with safety.

How else do they determine distances?

By instruments. That's what they're there for.
But this is news to many non-pilots, who in the face of all evidence fail
to comprehend simple realities.

Not necessary. I can just look in the sim.

I've worked on approved PCATDs with 85 x 185 degree visuals and
10-12 bit flight controls. Ive got news for you simmers. Without
experiencing the motion that occurs in turbulence or periodic cross
winds, you don't much of a chance of dealing with them correctly when
they happen. Your instinct from years of driving cars is to turn into
the gust immediately, when the best course of action is to let the
aircraft self correct, then put it back on the average course as
needed. Of course if it flips the wing too far over you have to start
to correct. Its a judgement call that has to be learned, and its not
easy.

I'm sure it's difficult for some people.

You'll be too fixated on single instruments with no
scan patterns And I'm used to sims with 6 projectors and seamless
visual integration and good flight models.

I scan instruments thoroughly. That's easy to learn in a sim.

I'd like to see you guys correctly
adjust a heading knob and center the needle on the CDI on the first
shot Especially knowing 200 or so lives are depending on you doing it
right while keeping one hand on the yoke. Its not easy, especially if
your trying to talk while doing it.

I don't talk when flying. Maybe that's the problem.

I have no trouble walking with my eyes closed. The vestibular system is
designed for that. It's not designed for flying, however.

Exactly the point, pin head. Keep looking at your game, and dreaming of
reality.

How would you know moron, you don't fly. You have no clue.

No one can reguilarly crash and die.

True. *It's a different pilot each time.

Sorry but that is funny observation ;-)



For some of us, an attempt to recover from a stupid mistake does not
qualify as an "observation".

Doesn't seem to help you with perceptions of reality.

And see that your statement was obvious nonsense.

Unless one is flying an ultralight over a corn field in Nebraska, one
HAS to talk while flying a real airplane.
