The Flight simulator is inconclusive and has many flaws. They just cherry picked waypoints, which didn’t have timestamps and stitched a path together. The waypoints could be from multiple sessions. The last waypoint in the southern Indian Ocean were it ran out of fuel was supposedly flown in a PSS B777, the major problem with this is, the PSS B777 is not compatible with FSX. So how can the first waypoints be in FSX?
Point of order there GBO. Do you have a source for the claim that "they" just cherry picked waypoints on Zaharie's flight sim? (I presume it is the FBI you are referring to.)
AFAIK this claim first came up in Florence de Changy's execrable book, but perhaps you've better evidence?
The flight sim data, if true, is pretty damning for the captain. I can't see a clear reason that the FBI would concoct evidence, but I CAN see why people would want to discredit it.
