incorrect information. I have personally loaded 65,000lbs of cargo alone in them. Nominal peace time ramp weight is 440,925lbs. I have exceeded 480,000lbs without problems. FYI ,Your math is a bit off.
The power of theses planes is amazing, for that size to do sumthing like that, i feel so privileged to have seen these monsters do that in real life, n loved every second they flew over my house doing take offs n landings, love the sound n i miss it dearly
Its a cheap and cheerful way to learn how to fly different planes. Flying school for an airliner would set you back around $40,000 more or less, flight simulators cost just $40. Also the consequence of crashing and breaking every FAA rule in the book is sometimes fun to pull tricks that are impossible and you won't harm other people. Although flight simulators are inaccurate it can also people who want to be a pilot at least give them a background before they enter flight school.

Dear All,
I have some question about psuychology:
(1) Why do we enjoy flying "Flight Simulator"?
(2) What does make us to play Flight Simulator over and over again?
(3) What is the fun to flying in a way that can only be accomplish in "Flight Simulator"? (eg. landing an C17 on a carrier on the sea)
(4) Why do we like to fly different models of aeroplanes?
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE for your creative ideas and brainstorm!!! :)
