I searched the forums and found a thread about Pausing at ToD. But just wanted to verify that it is still okay to pause mid-flight, then come back to finish it. This would be an Offline (no Vatsim) flight.

No worries about pausing, it will stop the flight timer if your flight sim is paused and everything will work out ok.

We all have interruptions etc. Maybe the phone rings, we have to pee, or we have to check the frequency for our ILS landing etc.
Nice to know we don't get penalized for just enjoying our hobby. I know I don't get paid. smile

or have a copilot.

Awesome Thanks!!!

A lot of times I won't do a specific flight, because I know that I can't be at my PC the entire time.
