I feel your pain.
I really did not want to spend the $200 for a G3 sim. Well after two or three mounths thinking about it, I finaly went out and bought one. It is great, I have improved my skills quite a bit. It allso helps out on those rainy days. I have been told that "there is no sub for stick time". You will learn to react to what the plane is doing with out thinking about it.

The help of a $200 sim is better than losing a more valuable plane. (sims fly year round, two feet of snow,three inches of rain,what ever mother nature throws at you)

Good luck
