Wow ... IL2 and Pacific Fighters. I learned how to fly on those two. I'll never forget the thrill of actually controlling an airplane on IL2. I just wanted to fly around the countryside without getting shot down. I'd low fly the rivers and I was in heaven. Then I learned how to use the guns and started to blow up bridges and buildings. What a trip! Never got to much into dogfighting.

Then I decided to try Microsoft FS. The difference in flight dynamics got me hooked. It was so much more real. And I didn't have to get shot down.

Anyway I got a Saitek X-52 and the experience was consumate. Beautful joystick. But I decided to go CH and got the yoke and pro pedals. Now I think I have the ultimate setup. CH rules.
