But I still think that in a real F-16, my real experience in real planes would
serve me better than all the time I've spent shooting down other gamers
in Falcon 4.0.

1) How do you link falcon 4 over the internet?
I would like to do that.

2) Something the home computers will not simulate is the actual control
feel and mass/inertia effect of the actual aircrafat or full motion
military sims. So, while you may be able to "fly" your home computer
simulator with your choice of input devices, you would be "toast" in the
real thing. It is easy to sit in front of you home computer and "fly"
1-g maneuvers throughout the envelope, and quite another to pull
high-g's repetitively while jinking in the real thing while looking back
over your shoulder for the guy(s) trying to get you.
