No, that's not what I'm saying at all. Re-read what I wrote.

Interesting, but fluid flow equations and navier stokes equations are not used in a 6DOF FM


Hence me stating 6DOF and not fluid flow or navier stokes


Not only is 6DOF good enough for PC game flight simulation, but it is good enough for most if not all military flight simulations.
So you agree it's an approximation to reality then, as I said earlier?

On that note, don't confuse flight simulation with aircraft design technics (which you appear to be doing)
The ideal simulation will follow principles of aircraft design and accurately reproduce reality.

I got news for you, no simulation is 1:1 with reality
No kidding, this is the point I was trying to make from the beginning.
