>You have always been able to get away with shit in a flight sim that you would never be able to do in real life because you can't defy the laws of physics in real life. You might think so, but with the Diamond DA40 in MSFS it's actually the opposite: Even with just the pilot and a half tank it stalls like it's completely overloaded with 4 passengers and a full tank. So I can actually see how they might have engineered this on purpose to be on the safe side, so student pilots don't stall the real plane. On the other hand, that also means you lose a ton of options in an emergency. But teaching young people to fly the plane more careful than required is probably better than the other way around.
