[Video] Pilots trolling ATC in Flight Simulator X

[AggieMike88]

While sims, including home sims, do have their place in flight training, students are cautioned about the lack of realism and how it can create bad habits that can be expensive to unlearn.

This video sorta demonstrates why...

Don’t think I understand.

There’s piles of these videos. People think it’s funny to do dumb things in FS and the YT crowd that likes to watch will always enjoy a fake ATC player acting like the madness is some sort of problem.

The YT video makers make a few bucks off of the funny ones, I guess. Not much. Some people even subscribe to the junk. LOL.

That was funny.!!!

Did not understand a thing, but it was funny.

"Need emergency takeoff!"

Are you sure that wantt real? "You don't have to land if you don't want to."

Finally watched it. Yeah that’s the guy who does most of these. Notice the players all know it too. “Will I be on YouTube?” Dude makes piles of them.

I watched the first five minutes of that video and that is funny!

"Need emergency takeoff!"
