Flight Simulators?
Well, I played Yahoo Pool on the computer and got up to a 2700 rating. I'll bet if I keep practicing on it I might be able to go to Las Vegas and beat the Pro's in Real pool!
I also played Sega Golf and shot a 57, 15 under par for 18 holes! I average 7 under par every round so I'm ready to take on Tiger Woods in a Real tournament!
As far as flight simulators? I think they're great if you are bored at home with nothing else to do! Whoever invented that was one-smart-money-making-guy!
Take your plane to the flying field and it's a whole new ball game!
Rather than buy a simulator, I'll save my $200 towards a nice plane and get me an instructor that will take off and land it for me while I learn to fly it while it's in the air.
And if I get bored at home I'll just work on building a new plane or play more "FREE" Yahoo Pool or Sega Golf!
Who knows! You keep practicing on that simulator and you just might be the next world champ!
Good Luck.....
