Ok , I've been following this thread for a while now...and biting my tongue the entire time.

Italian-flyer, no practice? what do you call your 2 or 3 days a week on G2? Why do you think that for the TOC's in Vegas do they alot space on the salt flats for...PRACTICE!!!
Until two days ago, i have never used a sim...i bought G2 for something to do on rainy days, and while it is fun, nothing beats getting out there and actually flying your plane. I've been flying for six years, and by no means consider myself an expert, but i owe all that i know to practice...all those times i would just "throw" the sticks to the corners to see what happend, and then coordinating that to perform specific maneuvers. And i'm not even going to go into how rude you're being by asking a question and then criticizing the answers like you could have answered them better yourself. My apologies to everyone that may have said the same things earlier in the thread, but thats just my .02...
