Declan,
VFR flights aren’t really recommended as a starting point for blind IYP pilots.
I suggest you focus on IFR. There is a lot of information on both kinds of
flight in the IYP manual, among other places.
If you have some vision, VFR is probably easier. Still, I don’t have vision, so
my ability to help beyond general tips and advice is limited.
Best,
Zack.

Hi, I've just been making a VFR flight but crashed on landing, is there
somewhere I can read about VFR flights in the user manual, I'm using simple
Microsoft ATC.

I think one thing which gets glossed over somewhat is how complex real-world
jetliners, and even multi-engine airplanes, actually are. The FSX
simulations of the 737, 747 etc are poor imitations at best. IYP does a good
job of giving us checklists for even very complicated airplanes, but it’s
easy to kind of “cheat,” and just run through the checklist without really
understanding what’s going on under the hood.
I definitely tend to agree with Robert in general. :)
Best,
Zack.

Hi.
Robert, with all due respect, but 40 hours in that little cessna bird
are just way overkill.
I spend maybe like three or 4 hours in the cockpid and than I jumped up
to the bigger birds which are way more fun to fly with than that old
rust bucket of a cessna 172 Skyhawk.
Greetings Moritz.
