What are you trying to do practice to become a pilot?. If so the best thing for you to do is to go to flight school and use real simulators where it is setup just like an actual plane.

Let's also give the same consideration to all the successful plane take offs and landings, and planes that are NOT shot down every day.

Considering that you can get private licenses in some locations at around $2500 and considering it is for a plane that is pretty affordable.

Also I did not state planes are shot down everyday, I said shot down lately. and crashes have been increasing as well over the years, also kids think its fun to shine lazers into the cockpits which can also blind the pilots sometimes even permanently and cause crashes. Flying is just not as safe anymore.

It seems at first flying was awful due to lack of technology, then flying improved and it was good and now flying is getting more and more risky as time goes on.
