The other day I was doing some instrument work brush up for my flight
test. The first five hours of IF I did about 9 moths ago, and at that
time I recall that I did not find it all hard to roll out of turns on
a heading. However that seems to have changed, this week I found it
quite hard to steady the plane after a long rate 1 (TC only as this
was partial panel work). I've been puzzling over this and wonder if
the trouble is that I'm starting to feel the flight more by other
senses -in effect have I developed a sensitivity to the leans as my
body has learned to feed more flight attitude info to my cranium? In
any case, there could not have been a more dramatic demo for why MSFS
is a pale shadow of the reaql thing! Is this to be expected when just
using the TC in partial panel? Any thoughts welcome.



Unless your gyros are tired out, you've probably just lost the knack. It's
a mechanical thing. Your rate of roll needs to be consstent and smoth and
after that you only need an approximate number of degrees on your heading
to lead the turn.
