To me c172 become the best representative. Learning to pilot on c172 (in reality or in FG) is a pleasure We could have a dream: every aircraft being so easy to fly. FlightGear must have within the base package every difficulties from the easier to the most difficult. We must tell to the newbie a list of Aircraft with degree of difficulties , i guess he must start with the c172. In reality does some pilot student start to learn to fly on an f18 or a mirage ? i don't think so. FG is the same, and the talk with bf109 demonstrate that nice taildragger cannot be flown by anybody who is not experienced, which does not mean it must be OUT. The high level of FG need these Aircrafts difficult to fly but real. OR like i said before we are on the same level of any others FS non free , with an advantage to them they they have an eye candy with scenery. We don't have it.
