Default A real life pilot's first sim experience

But if you like the sensations and feedback of a real aircraft, you might not
be very happy with simulation overall. Still, given the choice between a sim
and nothing at all, I suspect you'd choose the sim, as many pilots do when a
real aircraft is not readily at hand.


Yes, I use MSFS as an occasional substitute for my Cherokee 180 when I
can't fly for real. I use the default Cessna 172, it's not bad,
except that no matter how I adjust the sensitivity settings, the
rudder is WAY too sensitive compared to my Cherokee or 172s that I've
flown. Is there anything else to try?
