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.
