The biggest problem is trying to write. Roll Eyes

It kept clicking off my chat window and as I would write it would do all sorts of things to the plane! Nearly made me crash several times!

I made such an embarrassing landing on the final airport. Firstly I had to dodge some crazy pylons.. Roll Eyes

who the idiot placed those there? ??? Then the sync thing went and was so madly out of order that I could barely stay straight. I couldn't remember the key code to stop it (yeah had the sync switch thing on already).

Hi Ben...!
Tip: On the twin-engined aircraft, (Beech Baron), bring up your "control lever window", make it small, drag it into the panel, and observe the throttle, prop and mixture levers...they should always be level with each other...not out of balance...!!!
Keep an eye on your dials as well...tacho, vacuum, CHT, EGT, fuel flow, etc,...
LOL...!
