    What is the best flight sim recommended - for some reason I am drawn towards
    more the commercial airliner type game rather than shoot em up, but either
    is ok. Also is their a recommended controller to go with it ?
    Been looking at X-Plane and MS Flight 2004.
    Interested in the latter but doesn't seem to be any kind of trial demo for
    it. Would anywhere sell it to download or alternatively a game shop that
    takes PayPal currency?

    Many Thanks

    Unfortunately I suffer with this because of the lack of controller and the
    information on using the keys is a bit spartan.

    AFAIK, if you right click in the centre of the 'window' you can fly
    with the mouse. It's not as good as a joystick, but it's a damn sight
    better than trying to fly with the keyboard.
