Differences btween a real pilot and prof. simpilot?

<< < (2/2)

EHM-1506 Emre:
Thanks for your answers guys.

Let me know if I am thinking anythink wrong... Let's make clear this, I can find my way to the airport,right? After finding a suitable airport,

If I am flying with Cessna then I can t/o and I can land but my insurance won't be happy with this landing... Because I haven't got any experince with handling a real aircraft.But I can even land to the airport in one piece.

When I am flying with a big jet I can t/o and I can land if a pilot can tell me all the procedures and the buttons that I have to use but in this time my insurance won't pay me anything because they won't want to repair they will sell the plane... :) Of course I am assuming that the weather is very well, almost no wind, etc.

I am very related with this topic because I want to be real pilot when I have got some money to take lessons. ;) I am wondering that if I will be able to pass exams and easily handle the plane? That way I can concantrate on FS till I have some money. What I understood with your messages is that I can learn so many things about aviation flying with FS and off course flying for EHM.

Billions of thanks... Safe landings...

lol, yeh Flight Simulator is good for learning a lot of stuff, im currently a pilot, but the good thing that i was lacking at the time was Hand to eye cordination which is how you control your eyes and your hands. If you want to improve FS is the one for you. When flying real life, you are always checking making sure evrything is going well. You are also feeling certain effects i.e G forces (well for me anyway). Another thing is that when i fly in such servers as IVAO and Vatsim i have seen that not all the ATC is the same as real life. You cannot compare real life flying to a game. No way! it wouldnt work. flight simulator is a simpler version of flying in real life.. i thought yeh they are really alike but know im sitting in my Tornado F3 thinking hmm.... ok ive got real ammunition on this and everything about it is different from flight simulator lol.

Anyway hope that helped you ;)

In that case, I assume your date of birth in your forum profile is incorrect? It states that you were born in December 1988, but if you fly the F3 you should be at least 17,5 years old.

????????
