I've been playing around with Phoenix for a couple of days now. It's a good tool to keep the thumbs and hand eye coordination excercised. Certailny beats doing nothing when the winter cold temperatures keeps you indoors. As for box management the simulator comes complete with an F3A flying field (marked with acurate box lines) and a couple of Sebart patterships to spice up the scenery. You can overlay a sky orientation which gives you light vertical lines each at 15 degrees. Zero degrees lines up with the right edge of the runway. Thirty degrees lines up with the right box line. Ninety degrees lines up with the center box line (and there is a center pole). 150 degrees lines up with the left box line. Go to Flying sites, select Moscow RC-Clup. From the View pull down select Displays then select Show/Hide Sky orientation.
