Yesterday, he decided to conduct a rather interesting experiment while on a flight across the Atlantic Ocean.

Normally, people watch movies, read books, play with their Nintendo Switch, or simply sleep on long flights. Ismail played Microsoft Flight Simulator, reproducing the same route.

In the meanwhile, he posted several updates on Twitter, displaying interesting and rather impressive similarities between the real flight and the simulated one.

As someone who flies in Microsoft Flight Simulator very regularly, I’m quite aware of how impressive it can be, but this surprised even me.

Proud weeb hailing from sunny (not as much as people think) Italy and long-standing gamer since the age of Mattel Intellivision and Sinclair ZX Spectrum. Definitely a multi-platform gamer, he still holds the old dear PC nearest to his heart, while not disregarding any console on the market. RPGs (of any nationality), MMORPGs, and visual novels are his daily bread, but he enjoys almost every other genre, prominently racing simulators, action and sandbox games. He is also one of the few surviving fans on Earth of the flight simulator genre.
