Yes, It is. All the planes in ALL the sims can be made hard OR easy to fly. What you don't want is a sim that is too easy to fly. A little on the hard side will teach you a lot more than a little on the easy side. Better to look good at the flying field than good on the simulator. People just need to learn how to adjust parameters on Reflex. You can set up a plane to fly like a helium baloon, accurately or a little hard to really challenge yourself and make flying the real plane seem easy.
