The one thing you don't get is comm experience - there is a Comm DVD
that's available through Sporty's to practice various types of ATC
communication, and I recommend it.

You can get superlative comm experience by joining VATSIM or IVAO, which
allows you to simulate flights with real people providing ATC by voice that
corresponds precisely to the real thing.

"Precisely" is unfortunately a relative term.
Misinterpretion by pretentious, testosterone-driven simulator pilots usually
results in death.
