Default Whatdo you use your simulator for??

I used my simulator to learn how to fly and now i use it to practice my 3D flying. I was just wondering what other people use it for.

Was using it for 3D but now have discoverd free flight and soaring. At first I thought it was boring, but it's a total rush and a true art. Much harder then 3D.

Hey DION !!

Thanks for giving me yet another chuckle (sp). Did you know that Reflex XTR and more importantly G3 are actually pretty good at replicating the flying of your new fond soaring intrests?

Remeber me? I was the one flying the tight rolling circles at the G3 booth in Toldeo last year just before you "test flew" and decided it was twitchy.

Sorry - couldn't resist the jab. Anyway, have a safe trip and see you in Toledo in a few weeks.

Oh - I use sims to "keep my thumbs from getting dumb". IMAC North Central compitions starts early in the flying season and in many instances I can only get 5-10 flights in because it's either always raining or there is snow still on the ground. Ohio stinks!
