Level Ds are the sims 90% of pilots who fly on their first commercial flight have flown before touching down for the first time in a big jet. Of course they have single and multi-engine experience before that but you could in theory even do your multi-engine certification in the biggest jet you can afford. Everybody is going to have single engine plane time before they can fly multi-engine jets. There are of course a few jets that are single engine - so in theory you could also do your PPL with a jet.

In fact real flying is easier than FS. You feel every movement which makes it a lot easier to correct if needed. After some years of serious simming I took an introductory lesson in a Cessna 172 and flew the thing from engine startup to shut off all by myself. The only time the instructor corrected a bit was on final, with a bit of rudder. It was a very quiet day with almost no wind, that really helped.

Note nearby roads, rivers, lakes, towns, industrial buildings, railroads, etc. Any prominent landmark you can know it is in relation to. Next, with good/proper navigation skills, you should be able to fly a course Directly over it. I could fly 40nm legs without GPS, using only a paper map, a compass, and a timer, and I could hit my waypoints and destinations within less than a mile accuracy during private pilot training. I now hold 14 FAA certificates and can still out fly and out navigate most pilots today because they lack these basic navigation skills. Using these methods, just the paper sectional chart, good navigation, using landmark references as you start to approach your destination to get oriented, and knowing the general layout of the airport using the AFD (runways, orientation, where buildings might be located in relation to teh runway as buildings are easier to spot as you approach), I have been able to navigate to unfamiliar airports with ease, even without using google maps to look ahead. Sometimes you have to get almost directly overhead to spot them, but that's where good navigation comes in, and staying on course until you have the airport in site.

I can say from personal experience that the sim is an amazing tool for a student pilot. When I took my private pilot lessons, after spending hundreds of hours flying in the sim, I did everything almost within the minim amount of time required in the air. In between my practical lessons I practiced in the sim as well, and kept demonstrating high level of performance. When I fly the Cessna 152 in the sim I always treat the airplane like I treat the real one, including comlete preflight check, engine runups, the works. I don't treat Flight Simulator like a game. It is a learning and practicing tool for pilots. You can play with it if you want, but its not a game to me. And by the way, Microsoft isn't the only sim on the market. I tried X-plane as well and its also an amazing piloting tool. Apology for being sarcastic, but I really don't think spnending a couple of hours in the sim without any form of training and guidance can be any indication to whether you can use MSFS to learn how to fly a real plane. I know its possible, I did it myself. It just takes a lot of learning and practicing, just like in real life.

Yes it can simulate the physics but of course you can’t feel the aircraft like you can in real life, and there’s so much more to it than just getting in and taking off, you’ve got to think about a flight plan, knowing your departure and arrival airport frequencies and taxiways, navigation, what altitudes you need to be at, what the winds are and how that will effect your flight, weather, air traffic control, different airspaces and where you can or cannot fly. So yeah, flight sim for the basics but it can’t teach you to fly.

While flying a real airplane is different from a simulator, I must say that I wish I had "todays" flight sim back in 1982 I was taking lessons. The instrumentation in Microsoft flight simulator's Cessna 152 is very close to actual flying as far as functionality. You can actually learn to fly VOR to VOR using the instruments in the sim. As a bonus there are many areas in the sim world with actual landmarks. So yeah, I think flight simulator is a great learning tool, however I think it might cause over confidence for someone who is starting real flight training. In the real world, over confidence can certainly get you killed. Of course you can't make such abrupt movements in the real plane and get away with it as you can in the sim. If I were an instructor I would make that clear to the student before we ever left the ground.

But not essential to learn it that way. Lots of places have no glider instruction available in the US, so it gets skipped.

If you approach flight simulation as a training tool, not as a game, then you can certainly learn a lot about flying and give yourself a solid foundation of knowledge to pursue real flight training. As others have said, nothing will be as good as the real thing, you just don't get the physicality, the turbulence, the engine vibration, the sensation of speed as the plane rushes through the air. A common risk with learning to fly on a home simulator is that you develop bad habits which are difficult to undo if you progress to learning for real. I've gone from sim to Private Pilot and I work at a flying school where the instructors say the same thing.

It does still depend on the student and how open they are to learning and taking instructions. I'll agree on the instrument fixation though. I carry instrument covers and such with me to cover the panel as well. I teach how to fly with as few instruments as possible from the first flight.

I have a method of nipping that in the bud on the first flight before it ever happens. And that method of avoiding PIT, applies to chasing the needles, with some other tips added on. Yes, trim is something I thought of watching this video too. Sims never teach that. And it's hard to teach in planes like a Cessna 150 and sometimes even a C172. The students simply can't feel the subtle differences yet. A C182 or other heavier airplane teaches trim very fast though, as the control forces are heavier and will tire students out quickly. They can really sense the trim in heavier planes, and that translates well back to the lighter planes once they've learned it. Learning pitch and power settings for the aircraft, and then trimming it out really helps. I focus on getting them to fly hands off. It helps them relax their grip, and shows how stable the aircraft can be, and teaches them only to make corrections, not to Control the plane. Set the pitch power and trim, and let it fly itself. Only if turbulence, downdraft, wind shear, etc. disrupts the plane and it doesn't self correct do I have them correct it. They see very quickly they do not need to force it, but be patient, and subtle. Works really well, and translates perfectly to learning helicopters too.

As Indiana jones said ... "fly.. yes , land... no" Well, maybe. I did a lot of light aircraft flying as a cadet at 13... it was relatively easy to keep the aircraft in the air. beyond that.. never had to land or takeoff. But its fairly easy to fly it.. if the object is to keep it flying and throw it around a bit :)

My biggest problem is adding rudder to keep the plane straight through the air. I compare it to dog tailing like I'm going straight but I'm crooked going through the air.

For everyone wondering - it can help a lot! I have been flight simming since I was 6 (I am 20, curently using P3D v5) and it helped a lot. I was able to do a full flight from taxi to landing and parking with few circuits on my first lesson. I did my first solo with 15h total and passed a checkride with 46h total. Flight simming will make you more or less completely prepared for your first lesson.

what do you mean by learn to fly a plane ? Can you learn how to start and taxi, probably, but no, you can't learn to take off and fly from a to b and land it without crashing. It's much more difficult with real wind. and environmental conditions. You can't prepare yourself for the crops and climbs during flight or pulling out of a spin, or landing with a jolt from sitting in a chair. That is ONLY something you can learn from actually doing it.

I definitely think you can fly a plane from playing this simulator. If you fly a study level aircraft in the simulator like FBW or the new one which might be even better although I forget the name. People say it is easier to play the simulator then go to the plane vs fly the plane than go to the simulator. I do think it is possible as there are many people who play this game like real pilots and do every little detail there is in the cockpit and they have Live ATC.

This literally sums up BuzzFeed. The game (YES IT's a game. Just as Euro Truck Sim or Farm Sim. It's as close to flying as you can get without killing the planet nor can die but that's about the only improvement from real flying) makes clear this isn't to be used in any way for flying training, nor is it accurate to take away from to learn IRL. Even the most hardcore simmers of us who play hours a day (I mean like >5 hours DAILY) and can actually fly properly in the simulator, if not real pilots, if you put us in a plane and tell us to fly, don't expect to see that plane come back in one piece if even does! Realistically all MSFS is good for is having fun and IF a real pilot, going through procedures or routes etc. in the simulator so in real life more confident but to even pretend could be a learning tool for practical flying is just crazy and even simmers who teach professionally and love MSFS say it's more likely you make bad habits while flying in the simulator.

flight simulator doesn't really directly teach you. you can learn by experimenting. you could get skilled by reading and watching videos on the controls of a plane. flight simulator is more of a sandbox the in game tutorials are very basic.

OK, if you don't spend time learning the basics of navigation, why would anyone assume that one can fly a plane AND get it to its destination. I mean. She's probably never even heard of trimming. Sooo, yes you can learn flying with a Sim. You just have to utilize all of its capabilities.
