my only experience with them is in the sim and a couple of trips in the back seat of one....comftorable airplane in the back......pain in the ass if your flying it....using spoilers to turn is quite possibly the stupidest thing ive ever seen...after a v1 cut your immediate reaction is to controll the airplane with a bit of rudder input and a little bit of aileron (spoiler) thats when it gets tricky.....the real plane proably flys way better seeing that they design the sims to be hard to fly....they do have a really low initial purchase price tho which is proably the reason they are so popular......i would say go for it and get a sic type outa the deal
