I usually spend around 10 - 15 hours a week flying in FS2002.

Back when I was in my learning curve I spent about 6 hours A DAY - 5pm to 11pm.  Now I think up a fun flight - sightseeing, a new technique or ac - and just fly it.  Sometimes it's an hour, others it may be 3 hours.  I don't fly every day anymore.

15 hours a week would be over 2 hours a day, so I'll go with 10-15.

Who all flies more then 15 hours a week?

During term time I normally get about 5 hours a week done. During holidays I can easily knock off about 8 hours a day without trying!

I don't spend too much time flying since I can't really have the settings on, let alone on full!  So there isn't much point to it, unless you're totally addicted to flying, it is difficult to fly a lot on my system, but it doesn't really bother me since I'm logging more ours doing the real thing at the moment!  It's much better!!!

That'd be me.

Even without the RTW stuff, I must put that in easily with panel, gauge and query testing.

I might start keeping my log book as I've no idea how much time I spend flying at the moment LOL.

Yup, about 5-10 hours weekly sounds right. Mostly projects, like alphabetic state to state in the US (Boeings), member state to member state in the EU (Airbuses), and now, in homage to FSTipster, a RTW east to west in a small personal jet.

My wife reckons that it's a viable alternative to golf!

I certainly was logging more than 20 hours per week, but now with all the time I have been spending on my new website logging my misadventures up to date, I haven't flown at all for a few days.

As I am saddled wit a very low attention span I have had to say 3-5 hours a week.

I would like to fly more but other commitments and the above mentioned attention deficit mean that I spend a huge amount of time tweaking and downloading stuff and very little time flying.  As a wise forum member said to me a few months back, it's the old "fish or cut bait" debate.

Gotta appreciate a wife that thinks like that........

I normaly log 40hrs+ per week.Usualy when I get home from work Ill spend a couple hrs flying around localy,then after dinner Ill load up a flight "across the pond"that takes 6-8hrs,(i.e:JFK to Templehoff),set the autopilot & go.That way I can start my day with a good cup'o joe, a decent,approach and landing.It gets me in the proper state of mind for my day at the"salt mine" I guess Im a good candidate for a stay in the"rubber room", HUH?

Being almost house bound, I have no life.  Which is a good thing because I get to fly and forget everything else.
Bottom line, I fly no less than 5 hours a day, sometimes more.  MS Flight Simulator Series has given me the reason to get up in the morning. And THAT is a good thing.

You know me Andrew...!
Anything from 8 O'clock in the morning 'til 12 O'clock midnight, (and sometimes beyond..!), 7 days a week.... ..!
The 'puter is permanantly switched on with FS 2002 running just waiting for me to pause hoovering, shopping, cooking, washing clothes, mowing the grass, etc, every day, and take-off into the wide blue yonder....!

That's the beauty of being a cool, laid-back, retiree... ...!
My time is my own.... ...!

Cheers...

When I'm out of school (i.e. summer) I spend about 4 to 5 hours a day, so about 28-35 hours a week. I love and am addicted to flying.

between 0 and 10 hours a week
(discounting SFP1) then between 5 and 15 a week.
