I agree to a point but I think a simulator has some value. It is much much easier to work out control postions on a computer rather than learning while flying my actual planes. How about learning a rolling circle using a 1-26? Even at altitude it would take a lot of time learning this maneuver. On a simulater you are guaranteed stick time. Once you have the moves worked out and get your muscles trained to them then it is time to practice using the real thing. >From: "Bill Swingle" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: Re: [RCSE] Learning Aerobatics >Date: Wed, 3 Jan 2001 14:30:35 -0800 > > >>I want to learn aerobatics for my sailplanes. > > >Please forgive my ignorance, I am confused.
