Hi just to give you some info for your decision. I also have Tens of thousands of hours in heavy transport category turbines. Real Flight G2 probably logged 1000 + hours on that. There is no maneuver I can't fly with regard to Jets and 3D airplanes on the Sim. Is it the same not really.

My fleet presently has numerous large Jets and yes I don't use instructors nor do I care for them. Typically I test fly and setup every model I have ever owned. However with the large Jets I would recommend getting the smoothest and best RC turbine pilot you know just to check your work and run the first trim out flight. Then either use a buddy cord or hand the transmitter back and forth. This will allow you to get a feel for her. After that try some approaches and landings thank your buddy for helping you and order him a Smithwicks.

Good Luck
Ian
