Pilot and Co-Pilot are incompacitated....

[Shuffler]

This hit me while reading another thread regarding rudder pedals. It went as follows.....

Need?  It's not about need, it's about fun and cool. Feels more like flying a real plane with pedals. Besides it's good traing for when your 747 it hit by a small plane, sucking the pilots out, and you have to take the controls and land it.  

Which begs the question..... your on a plane and the pilot and co-pilot are incapacitated. You have a choice among three gamers to take the controls. One experienced in AH, one in M$FS, and one in IL2...... which would you choose?

Probably the MSFS guy if I couldn't do it for some reason. Not that I am all that great; I would just rather trust in my skills than somebody else's.

The one with a pilot's license.

I should have said you can't do it yourself.

MSFS is interesting as the person may have actually flown the aircraft your in at the time of the accident.

IL2 they have probably delt with more realism in engine and flight control.

AH they have dealt with more realistic FM.

They all have their pluses.................

AH obviously. Look how often AHers get back to base with all kinds of pieces hanging off and blood all over the canopy. Never happens MSFS.

I choose the other hidden option, parachute.

The one with a pilot's license.

Winner!

Failing that, I believe they're all about equal.  Each knows just enough to possibly not kill everybody on board on landing.

AH guys as the pilot M$FS for the copilot

.....and if there's a direct crosswind on the only runway available;  wind 28 gusting to 35 knots?

Then I'll take the Microsoft guy.

lol, no they don;t.  The spitfire flight model and engine management have nothing to do with a 747.  I would however select the AH BBS poster to land me since AH people seem to be experts in everything from global economics to brain surgery, so they could probably fly a 747 no problem.

Come we'd just need to know where the landing gear button is...

What if no one has fixed the hole where the original pilot/co-pilot got sucked out of?  I think my choice would be whoever weighs the most.

[CAP1]

i would pick none of them, nor would i touch the controls, nor would i in any way/shape/form partake in any rescue attempts.

 why? because of the survivors, some schmuck will find a way to sue the pants off of virtually anyone that had anything to do with anything that got that plane down, allowing them to live. 

 or.......i'll choose to have scotty beam me up.
