I can only guess how frustrating it can bee trying to educate some of us "sofa pilots", specifically when some of us are trying to tell you how the machine works, when you actually have hundreds of hours in the real thing. Well, where some of the interpretations run afoul, is that this is all simulated in computer code. In many instances, things that would seem logical in the physical world, don't really come into play in a simulated world that is being manifested by code. To be honest, it doesn't necessarily help being a real pilot vs a sofa pilot in many cases. When I first joined the team, on more than one occasion the devs had to explain to me why things happen the way they do, when I was looking at an issue from a "physical world" perspective. The way I like to think of it is that there is no simulated hydraulic fluid actually moving through the simulated hydraulic system. But rather a series of calculations, based a range of conditional values, that are performed to determine hydraulic pressure outputs to various systems. 2 Afterburners are for wussies...hang around the battlefield and dodge tracers like a man.

I don't care; and it's threads like this that make me question why I bother interacting with or communicating with the players when this is the response. It is not my job to do so, but I try to be as transparent as I can be to keep players informed. Perhaps it isn't worth the effort. Well, I appreciate your insight and think the majority of people here do as well. While I get the frustration and wouldn't blame you for bailing, I hope you stick around. It's pretty awesome how a few people can ruin a good thing for everyone else.
