    Just fly Boeing in game. It’s a more authentic experience that way.

      If you have small data caps, it may even be cheaper.

          I was thinking more of uninstalling this 81 GB/hour game and enrolling in flight school (if you have data cap overage fees). But I like the way you think!

      If the experience you’re after is a near death experience, sure.
