also - no offense mate - but speaking as a flight instructor with a few years experience, FSX and computer flight sims in general are a hindrance rather than a help. It will ultimately cost you money because it will take you a long time to unlearn all the rubbish you've learned in the sim and learn the correct visual attitudes for controlling the aircraft.

It's almost impossible for computer flight sim guys doing their PPL training to resist the temptation to constantly look inside and try to fly the aircraft on instruments, as opposed to do the right thing which is, look out the window.

Once you've got 10 hours in the actual aircraft you'll see what I mean.
