where are real pilots flying single engine aircrafts (and not flying them just once), to answer this?

I just did on the previous page. Like I've said, you hardly see anything of the prop in most cases, and I have flown at least 20 different single engine prop aircraft, among them the Tiger Moth that is in the game. I have also flown the Yak-52 and it's the same with that one (quite similar to a WWII plane even though it's a lot lighter and has a weaker engine - but it is a radial at least ).

EDIT: And as I just fly for fun when getting the time I don't have more than ~400 hours, but that is a lot more than "once" at least
