Default Second plane?

Well, I have been flying for a little while on an Eagle 2 and I'm doing a Sig Somethin Extra for my second plane. Been flying on the Real Flight Simulator every night for about an hour or two. I can land on the simulator with the trainer perfect every time. I've also been flying the Extra that is in !QUOT!add-on!QUOT! number three and can land perfect every time. Every now and then I crash it because of doing something a little to close to the ground. I know there are differences in the real thing and the simulator but the fact that I can't fly the simulator from the pilots seat or following the plane. but, only from the ground can I actually land the planes.

The question I guess I have is, was the SE a good choice considering the experience and time spent on the simulator flying the Extra? I personally don't think that I made a bad choice. I know I'll just have to stay on the low rates and use the K.I.S.S. (Keep It Simple Stupid) method of flying for a while though. Does anyone have any ideas on what could help in this matter or any thoughts are welcome also.
