A posh term for a gamer who plays video games that at least roughly fall into the flight simulation category. These games include X-Plane, Il-2 Sturmovik, Rise of Flight, Aces High 2, DCS: A-10C Warthog, Battlefield 4 and War Thunder. Virtual pilots who mostly play war oriented games often join a clan (labeled in the scene as "squad", "jagdgeschwader" etc) and subscribe to some form of fascist or spartan ideology.

Manual transmission shitbox car or someone who drives one, usually a common compact vehicle like a hot hatch, generic enough to to be disposable but fast enough to get easily killed driving at high speed.
There go's another shitbox fighter pilot in a golf GTI, living on borrowed time in a world that despises thim. Live your best life little buddy.
