Before you can move forward..

I have tried to open up the conversation of how to validate a flight model..

And the first thing that comes up is what I have seen come up time and time again over the past 20 years of flight simming..

That anecdotical evidence should be used to validate the flight model..

I have pointed out some of the short comings and pit falls of anecdotical evidence..

And why I feel it should not and can not be used in the validation of a flight model..

But all I get in return is more of the same and/or restating things I already knew to be true (CoD is 6DOF)

I have an open mind on this, if swift or anyone else can 'do' what they say can be 'done' than great! But as I noted, many in the past have made the same claims that swift is making, and nothing ever comes from it!

So, I don't see any 'results' coming from this conversation..

In that it is not a conversation..

It is just me expressing my concerns about anecdotical evidence, looking for a reply back that will provide some information that will elevate my concerns

But as noted above all I get in return is more of the same and/or restating things I already knew to be true (CoD is 6DOF)

I can not say I am surprised, in that this is not the first time this has come up in the past 20 years of PC flight sims

And I suspect it will not be the last

I keep hoping someone will prove me wrong about anecdotical evidence, in that the more data the better!

But it has not happened yet
