Yeah, agree with the sentiments in here.
You have a better understanding and feel for monkey skills needed to do get the sim airplane to do things you want it to. But, there's always a game learning curve anyway. And the best sim will never get to 100% realistic.
Sims are best for procedure training and instrument skills. Otherwise, nothing beats ass strapped to seat, wheels off the deck flying. I also find actual flying in the goo to be easier to deal with than "hooded" instrument flight. Maybe that's just me though.
