But, most, if not all pilots love to fly, and for a commercial airline
pilot to have a flight simulator in his own house doesn't seem all that
strange to me.

I agree.Although, I do know people who don't fly but still use the
simulators because they would like. Of course if the simulator has
information so he has been practicing how to land a 777 on an abandoned
WWII airfield in the Middle East, there might be an issue.

That's an interesting point. Didn't Yossarian constantly practice ditching
his plane for his eventual escape to Switzerland in Catch-22? Until you
mentioned that, I really didn't think there would be any potentially
incriminating evidence to be found concerning the simulator. The big
question is if he did it, WHY? Family member held hostage? Promise of a
huge payday for delivering a plane that size intact somewhere? A need to be
remembered like D.B. Cooper as the man who "did it first and got away with
it?"
