Thanks folks, that makes a lot of sense: have some fun while waiting and prepare for a learning curve, not for mastery out of the gate. The learning curve is much of the fun with sims, so I'm glad to hear even you guys think there will be one.

FPSchazly, your videos have been a huge help. Thanks for all the effort! (Edit: I just watched your latest video .... congrats on the writing role. Can't wait to read that manual.)

Aktungbby, I'm just an instrument-rated private pilot and I haven't flown PIC in a loooooong while. But I do aviation-related writing and instructional design, and I use sim software every day, so I get my fix.
