VFR in flight sims and stick

Hi all,

I have two quick questions regarding PC flight simulators.

First, has anybody tried the new FS2002 photographic sceneries for VFR flights? Do they work or not worth the money?

And second what are your experiences with joysticks and pedals for flight simulators? I have a 3 axis logitech which is completely useless and need to upgrade to something more suitable. I'll probably stick to a stick (!) instead of a yoke but otherwise am open to any suggestions.


By the way going back to VFR in sims, I recently bought flight unlimited 2 for less than a fiver and it is indeed good enough for VFR!! It really is miles ahead of FS2002. I am very curious how version 3 looks like but unfortunately it's out of stock (everywhere).

Only drawback is the map is not so good for planning but I guess buying a sectional map for the SFrancisco are would solve the problem.

Thanks for the help,
mak
