I know at least 200 pilots, and it's pretty rare that you find one that spends hours on any form of simulator at home after flying all day.

Lots of guys have Flight Sim on their computers, but even then the online community is pretty small.

I would hazard a guess that there are more pilots with personal airplanes than simulators.

Oh ya, and this story is really weird. I can see a plane being hard to see, but to disapear without a beacon or something is really unusual.
