I've been flying for 23 years. I think that lining up with the runway on those sims is tuff! Keep practicing! I believe that the sims are a wonderful tool. I simply believe that its easier to land a real model. I also think that the wind in the program is funky. I've flown in 20 to 25 knot wind. Here in TX, that isn't strange. If I punch that in to that sim, I can not get that plane down!
And I don't mean that you should expect to go out and fly in 25 knots. Later maybe.
