Default RE: Does one really need a simulator?

Thanks Jim,

I also read almost every thread on this forum.
I am sure simulator help a lot while learning RC especially in the beginning. I am used to learn to fly circles, landing etc on computer. I used FMS for it. I think everyone should learn not only on real life RC plane, but on the computer too.
But now I am in position that I don’t feel like I learn anything while using FMS. Every maneuver is so different in real life that it is just no point to practice them on FMS.
Well that is my question, Is AFP closer to real life then FMS? And how much closer?

Pashka.
