Would subscribers please, please subsitute the phrase 'REAL LIFE' with the word 'REALITY'? It 'grates' on me reading such bad grammer, LOLDave T. .........On the Devon Riviera and active 'FlightSim User's Group' member at http://www.flightsimgrpuk.free-online.co.uk/http://www.captainsim.com/user/dl/c130/c130_captain.gif

I know what you mean, but I think it is OK because there are two sub-classes of reality: what should happen and what does happen. Reality I think best describes the former. The latter could be expressed as "practical reality" but that doesn't stand out as much as "real life". Has a bit more impact IMHO :D

DaveSurely it depends in what context you are using it?" I am a reality pilot" would not be right" I am a real life pilot" would be better " I am a real world pilot" would be better still"Online I post under the name of Commander Joe the fighter ace" ."Real life I am a Brain surgeon and my name is Joe Bloggs"In the above you could use " in reality I am" but also "in real life I am" surely???Peter

Hi Peter,No, "I am a real Pilot"?As most of us on here are 'Sim' pilot's, reality I think, is what we do when not 'simming' surely.Thanks to the 'spell checker' for correcting my 'grammar' word.Nice to have fans, LOL ;-)Dave T. .........On the Devon Riviera and active 'FlightSim User's Group' member at http://www.flightsimgrpuk.free-online.co.uk/http://www.captainsim.com/user/dl/c130/c130_captain.gif
