Phew, a sense of proportion, and much more coherent than my intended reply :-)

Like you say, most FG users are not pilots IRL, and speaking personally, the 
new MP capability has increased my knowledge and understanding of basic 
airfield operations in a way that just reading a book could not.  I currently 
know practically _nothing_ about ATC procedures, but if the facility was in 
place in conjunction with the MP servers, I (and plenty others) would 
obviously have the chance to learn and practice the basics...

Cheers,

AJ
