New to MS Flight Sim (from Fly!2)

Hello all.I am an instrument rated private pilot, and recently switched from Fly!2 because I needed a more up-to-date database of NAVAIDS so I could fly real approaches for practice. The transition to MSFX is taking me longer than I had hoped ... I would appreciate any posts to this thread with some solid "tips" for a new MSFX pilot who is using the tool for real-world training and proficiency. True, I'd like to fly through stunning scenery, but most of my use is to throw in some bad weather and fly approaches to minimums.Thanks very much.- David----David KohlMS Flight Sim X[/b]iMac runing WinXP Home on Boot Camp[/b]CH Pro Pedals and Yoke USB.
