Oh !!! Thank you, that works a treat, I managed to take off pretty smoothly, and landed the thing fairly smoothly as well !! :o) Now what would be good, is to have an instrument that displays torque, because the instrument panel doesn't have one as far as I can see, so it's impossible to gauge just "where I am" when I vary the collective pitch with Pg Up/Dn. Probably less of a problem if you have a joystick, since you can visually see where the know is, but since I am using the Keyboard (at least for now)....
