I never touched one cuz I find them boring as hell...but in the right applications simulators can be useful---more for IFR training though IMHO...I need to feel the forces as that's what I'm addicted to...you should see me drive until a couple of well placed tickets slowed me down--a bit...in fact I find myself treating cars like planes....
I tried to tell those cops that the speed limit below 10000' is 288mph but none would listen...
Everything in the real plane for me or I'll fall asleep...I had no ground school till the kingAir
that part was always signed off even IFR...
Now if I were going too learn to fly Choppers then I'd find myself a nice patient instructor to slowly walk me through everything...
