Want some opinions on them. I went ahead and bought the Saitek X-52 which I know to be a highly recommended stick, and while I was at it I recieved a package deal on the rudder pedals as well...haven't heard a lot on the pedals, but anything to keep me from having to go too the keyboard I figure is a good thing. So is this really going to help me figuring I really won't have to use the keyboard much at all? Seems to be my biggest problem flying when I have to look at keys and take my eyes off the action, so I figure it to be a good investment.

Yes. A HOTAS setup is well documented to be a wise investment.

Figured as much reading all the reviews. I'm also looking for a good flight chair, found one at Flying City http://www.flyingcity.net/prod...%3D%26pg%3D1%26m%3D0

Don't know yet though, still looking around.

That chair does not seem to have a throttle stand...

I would have to buy a throttle stand seperately, they have small metallic plates much like the one in front of the chair that can attach to the sides. I could have a total of three different stands; one on each side of me, and the one in front.

When you begin every post by quoting a previous one, and have 3 more previous quotes in your signature for some reason - Your posts are starting to get annoying / difficult to read.

There, should be fixed.

But yeah, that is my plan to get the chair and the plates seperately. I can't find a chair like that with plates already attached.
