I'd suggest you try to cycle the pitot then engage the upper ATC or left click on the tail wing. After that press down hard on the stub and insert coin.
Good luck
Make sure your joystick is calibrated correctly. Mine will do that sometimes. You can check in the control settings of the game to see if everything is correctly configured. Also look at the trim settings of your plane. It could also be the winds, if they're strong enough. Could be lots of things but I'm pretty sure it's one of these. Does it do that with every plane you fly? Let me know how you make out.

same here, always to the left... It can't be the wind, because after turning the aircraft around it stil goes left.

IF you are flying a prop driven aircraft, there are several things that can cause your plane to veer left. I don't know if this is YOUR problem. But it can be a pretty significant issue, especially if you are flying a tail-dragger (you're probably not).
To reduce the normal left-turning tendencies, accellerate more slowly and start off by applying a little right rudder right from the start. Once you begin to lose control, getting the swervies can come quickly.
Again, this may not be your issue. You may be having other things causing this. I'm just speaking from a pilot's point of view; and, the left turning thing is a real-world thing.

Lance is correct. Left turning tendancies are proper for particularly single engine prop aircraft. You can adjust these settings in the realism tab.
