I was quite heavily involved in MSFS development a few years ago with Rob Young and RealAirSimulations.

The flight dynamics engine was atrocious and it was always a compromise to get half real flight dynamics.

We actually got one to spin (The first ever) But that was Rob Young genius!!
There are benefits to using MSFS but mainly for instrument work and preferably on auotpilot

The weird thing is a few times flying a real aircraft in bad weather I had a false sense of security thinking that if I crashed on the runway a notice would come up saying that I had crashed and the game would reset!!!
