Lets be honest here, seeing the sites at close range and at about 600 ft doesn't work very well with a DOuglas aircraft. So what do you recommend for low altitude flying and being able to see national monuments close up? The Cosair is OK, but I been thinking of learning to fly a chopper.What is your advice?

Robinson R22, without question.Nothing but glass in front of you. Great for sightseeing.Do all of the helicopter tutorial missions to learn the basics and don't give up ... it's harder than fixed wing flying, but once you learn it, it totally expands the simulator and allows you to go anywhere and do practically anything.
