I'm not into flight sims but I am into Train Sims, I'm a "serious" train sim enthusiast because I am a serious train enthusiast. I work at a heritage railway, I physically work on restoring old steam engines and I go on train holidays with my nerdy train friends. 
I could draw you a diagram of the braking system of a Fowler 4F with my eyes closed. 

And when playing train simulators I like to use VR instead of a device like the RailDriver panel or a diy simulation pod. Don't you dare tell me i'm not really into it because I use VR you sneering fucking cunt I know more about trains than all of you combined. 
So with that in mind, how on earth can you say someone "isn't REALLY into air sims" for using VR, you have no idea of their level of interest or situation, you're just a twat.
