I have been practicing on my new flight sim for the past few weeks and am wondering just how helpful they really are. Those that started out usng a flight sim did you notice that your actual plane flew close to how it did while using the sim? What about flying towards you and ladning did the sim make that much difference in learning these skills? I have become quite good on the sim and can take off fly and land whilst heading towards myself without any problems . Does this mean I will be able to do the same with the real thing or is it completely different once you get a real plane in the air?

Regards,

Troy.
