X-Plane 11 versus a Real Plane - The Phobic Flyer
Last week I flew on runway 22 at Gloucester to familiarise myself with the circuit as that runway has been out of action for a while now. It was pretty bad and the video is here: https://youtu.be/6tkn9Jtm1M4. This week I tried the same circuit in the same type of aircraft in X-Plane 11 and whilst my circuit was technically better in X-Plane I find the real thing easier to fly! Don't get me wrong mind, X-Plane 11 is a really fantastic tool to use when training for your PPL, and I will definitely be using it as part of my IR(R) training. I fly a PA28-180 Warrior in real life and a Just Flight PA28-161Warrior in X-Plane.
I am using X-Plane 11.55 in Vulkan mode, a CH Throttle Quadrant, CH Yoke and rudder pedals and Oculus Rift S. I also do have the Logitech G Saitek Pro Flight Switch Panel, Pro Flight Radio Panel and Pro Flight Multi Panel although didn't have the panels enabled on this flight
