I have great flight sim experience, I was flying on VATSIM online with a microphone when I was 11, using SIDS/STARS and chart reading and cold starts in PMDG 747 and so on....

It's kind of a hinderence to the beginning of my learning because he was going through all flight controls, and wouldn't listen to me when I told him I knew what the rudder/ailerons where..

however what I've realised is that it's not a rush, and either way I'm going to need 45 hours minimum regardless of how fast I learn things.

Going flying this saturday, and then on the 20th
Thanks for that, now I understand where your obvious superior experience and knowledge comes from. Perhaps it should be a mandatory requirement for the future, that all students should be able to fly STARS/SIDS and cold start a 747 on a flight sim before starting their PPL training.


Perhaps if you had played an online game as a soldier you would have had a great future in the army - knowing all the "tricks" to keep you alive. I trust you also tried cybersex and that has made you fantastic with girls!!!
