You're a forger, a liar and a cross posting ass hole.

If I'm lying, prove it. You are already a known liar.

Mr. Potato Head, we don't put a big blob of flammable
material in a cock-pit, your sci-phy-math-chem education
is a functional Gr.10.


Whew, that's good to know. I always thought that dripping form the primer
was gasoline.

Default ATC assigned altitude?

Bummer.
It would be fun to fail damn near everything (flight and nav instruments) and
try getting down with marginal instrumentation and ATC vectors.


ATC will be happy to do that if they aren't too busy. Both pilots and
controllers enjoy the practice. Unfortunately, most pilots declaring an
emergency just want attention and priority, not help.

What happens if you do not follow their instructions?


You can be disciplined, which can include a suspension or ban from the network
for serious offenses.

Do they have a virtual destruct button to remove you from their airspace?


No, although that has been discussed.

MSFS does not even "simulate" an updraft. And, as far as I can tell, the simulated
"turbulence" is nothing more than a random number generator that rolls the
wings a little bit left or right.


Try ActiveSky, which does these things. It also simulates wake turbulence.

You have to because your game gives you nothing else to work with.


Under IFR, I'm not supposed to work with anything else.

That's also the reason it lets you do a "successful landing" that
would trash a real plane.


Not if you are using the right aircraft and you have crashes enabled. I once
damaged my flaps simply by making a somewhat firm landing, and I've damaged
gear on several occasions.

You wouldn't know. You haven't done it.


It is rather exhaustively documented.

I quoted you chapter and verse directly from the FAA, and you
contradicted it, liar.


The FAA is not saying what you claim.

You should fix you drip.

I guess you're not very good at it.
