Flew Airbus A320 Flight Simulator

and it wasnt worth it for money.

I did IFR and stared at the ADI the whole time. There was little scenery.

Anyway, after flying, there are still certain things that I dont understand.

The "pilot" told me that IFR is used on commerical airlines. In that case what is the use of VFR if using instruments is more reliable?

Why did the GPWS activate even though the landing gear was down and I was going to land?

Why was the rudder trim set to zero? How could I take off or land in a straight line then?

Why did the TCAS not sound on the ground when there are other planes there? I thought the TCAS was supposed to be activated on the taxiway?

Disclaimer: I am not a pilot
