As a former aerospace engineer and flight simulator developer, I’ve seen how most 'aviation games' distort real flight dynamics. In this deep dive, I expose five hidden physics truths that make mainstream flight games feel unrealistic—and why that matters for real pilots, developers, and dreamers. From lift-to-drag ratios to inertial lag, the truth behind the cockpit isn’t in the graphics—it’s in the code. Join me as I decode what actual flight feels like, not just how it looks.
