Are you a VFR or Heavy Metal pilot?

Now, in general, the ‘heavy flyers’ are usually not so much interested in the landscape, the scenery below, and are more concerned with the weather, the radio navigation, the ILS systems on the larger airports and often the airports themselves. And they usually fly from inside the airplane (as a real pilot would, yes, yes) and do not use the ‘spot view’ too often. Nothing wrong with this, that’s what a real airline pilot would do too, of course.

The GA flyers however are very often, and increasingly so, people who not only like to fly an aircraft for the joy of mastering the technology and techniques, but also tend to have a keen eye for the surrounding landscape. This is not a ‘simulator thing’ only either. Most real world GA pilots are sports or leisure flyers and have exactly the same urge to see the world from a different vantage point…. and enjoy it. Especially mountains, hills and water bodies are what make landscapes really worth while. There is nothing that beats the sight of a mountain towering high ABOVE your aircraft while flying through valleys and canyons, over endless glaciers and mountain passes. The sun and the weather make the same mountain look different in a thousand ways and flying in that environment is a constant challenge to the pilot. Real AND simulated.
