My biggest issue right now is that when (in a real airplane) I'm only
focusing on the instruments, things go very well. When I have to look
up a procedure or find an intersection and take my attention away from
the instruments: that's when the worms can come out of the ground!

Thanks for your time.


It does get a lot easier with experience. You just need to get to the point
where you are controlling the airplane with a very light touch most of the
time.

A good practice is to take your hands and off the controls and see how long
the airplane stays where you put it. If it starts to drift immediately, you
might want to check your trim.
