Aren't we playing when we are out flying? Even the simplest simulator - FMS - is good to get your orientation issues straight. It really does help.

You can use whatever plane you want in the simulator. Learn to fly and land them all!

There are a lot of Flite Test planes being made for the Phoenix simulator....

I use Phoenix, I've heard Realflight has some cooler features but I like what I'm used to and the user/community generated content is amazing!

Also worth checking out if the quads are your thing, Immersion have a simulator out on steam: liftoff-game.com
