Here's my suggestion - stop with the sim. Go fly a glider. A lot. Get a glider license. Learn aerobatics. At this point you've trained yourself to look almost exclusively outside. Now go learn to fly an airplane.
My thoughts exactley- gliding is by far the best introduction to basic attitude flying..
I had a convo recently with a student who posted a picture of (Gasp!!) a malfunctioning AI in a piper and how it was going to stop him have his next flying lessson.
When asked why it would ground him-' "Because we were going to practice steep turns"!!!
I weep....
