stick pressure not stick movement

Featured Replies

i've just discovered using pressure on the stick and NOT movement to manuever the aircraft makes ALL the difference in the world. it's like flying for the first time. i'm now able to do things i couldn't do before and i'm just talking basic things here. one is that i have more control over the VSI, in other words i can make the aircraft climb at whatever rate i want to now and keep it steady the whole way up or down. slow easy pressure and not movement {maybe alittle movement depending on the situation" does the trick. i'm talk a hair width here. not much at all. EVERYTHING is sooooooo smooth! i thought before i was using a light enough touch but apparently i wasn't. it REALLY is like flying a real aircraft now. EEEK!!! i have also decided i am going to fly from my home town airport and fly to destinations in the state i live in and get familiar with the other airports. i think that's what real pilots do. they have their favorite airports they like to fly to and they get familiar with them. it's pretty cool flying to one then taxiing around and check the place out and how it's setup as far as taxi ways and runways and stuff. also where you can fuel up at certain airports. anyway i just want to pass this incredible new experience on to anyone who might want to try it if you're not already. SLOW EASY PRESSURE and wait for the aircraft to respond. easy does it and she flies like a magic carpet. YIKES!!! william
