Can a flight simulator teach you to fly?

Flight simulators can familiarize a student with some basics of flying, which can give a leg-up over others who have never seen the inside of an airplane. This is especially beneficial if the student will be using an airplane in the flight sim that is equipped the same as the airplanes they may be flying.

What happens if you crash in a flight simulator?
With Crash Override ON you get a blue flash and a "Pop" noise and the flight continues (even underground). With Crash Override OFF the screens all turn opaque blue and freeze and must be reset by the Sim Operator. We have the exact same option and results for Kill (Death by a missile or gun) Override.

Does microsoft flight simulator teach you how to fly reddit?
You can learn so so much from flight sim if you immerse yourself in it. I first started flying FS9 flying solely by the F1-F4 buttons, arrow keys and the num 5 centre controls button. That really teaches you how to not rush things and make your approach stable :) Happy flying!

Can flight simulator teach you to be a pilot?
A simulator cannot teach you a lot of different pieces of flying and it's also not a real instructor. If you want to truly succeed in aviation, get in contact with a local flight school or instructor and begin taking lessons. You'll be surprised by how different it can be versus a simulator.
