Comment Comment by lsh123 Disclaimer: I am an instrument rated private pilot.I tried the latest MS FS when it got out and went back to X-Plane for majority of my instrument “currency” training:1) MS FS still doesn’t have a lot of US instrument procedures available.2) Avionics (e.g. G1000) doesn’t behave as in real life: buttonology is just wrong and often the logic is wrong too.3) Planes don’t feel “right” at the edges of the envelope.I still checkout MS FS challenges once in a while, but I treat it as an arcade. It is not real by any means thought rendering is pretty nice. parent lsh123 5 years ago
I tried the latest MS FS when it got out and went back to X-Plane for majority of my instrument “currency” training:
1) MS FS still doesn’t have a lot of US instrument procedures available.
2) Avionics (e.g. G1000) doesn’t behave as in real life: buttonology is just wrong and often the logic is wrong too.
3) Planes don’t feel “right” at the edges of the envelope.
