Unfortunately I havent heard anything from the other guys... hope they got through.
It is in fact quite a long journey from Sweden with a flight and 2 coaches to pick but it's definetely worth it!
Have you booked any accomodation for P4 yet? Im thinking about Dibden Manor /45£ B&B....not so cheap though
Well I haven't booked any accommodation yet, to be honest I haven't even looked! I'll let you know if I find anything good. Check your PMs too
Are we of the consensus that with motion on we would find it easier due to being able to feel changes in pitch and therefore gaining/losing height?
Any large pitch change will be obvious on the AH and would be felt, however I wouldn't have thought very small pitch changes when trimming for level flight would be felt on a motion sim, therefore not really making it any easier. In other words, losing or gaining 500 feet will not be 'felt' on a motion sim as the pitch change would be tiiiny.

That's my guess anyway!
In full motion, you'll be able to feel the G force of initiating a climb
Rememeber, it's not a Eurofighter
