antony,
How many trainers do you have? Do thay all have engines and radio equipment?

If so, you might consider selling one (for a lot of money over here), hen ordering Aerofly Pro from someone here that will ship to you. It's a very good sim and will probably help you learn to fly and NOT crash, which may cost you one of your trainers anyway.

Is there also a huge "class" system over there? Are you sure one of those "rich" RC'ers won't help you?

If the above is not possible, then spend a LOT of time with FMS. It's not all that good, but will help you get the right/left thing before you try your real planes.

I wish you luck.
