        Crazy how quick we are to react with changes after this, yet sit on our hands and do nothing after endless school shootings. 🤔

        Stop it. Flight simulators have nothing to do with that man's mental health or airport security.

        Computer flight simulators - good ones - are almost as good as the real thing. #SkyKing more than proved that. Airlines have put gamers in their professional flight simulators and they perform well.

        Stupid a young man jumped into a private plane at an 🇬🇧 private airfield with the same idea and died recently when he crashed.

        Well, Obama learned how to be President from a book written by radical Saul Alinsky, so.

        Not unheard of, really. For example 9/11 terrorists used this method. PS: Microsoft put out 1st Flight Simulator in mid 80's...

        Video games are as valid a medium for learning and gaining life experience as any other medium. It's as disturbing as if he'd learned it from books.

        Malaysia 340 redux. Games or flight simulator? Sims ain't the real thing but they are darn close. No he wasn't a pilot to begin with but I would bet on latent ability.
