I wish I could do that if I had a flight instructor. I want to fly but I don't have the money for now. That is why I asked the question here in a
forum about a sim program under the real aviation subject because it belong to real aviation and not specificaly simulation.
Thanks for the definition of the various heading term. That always confused me but could never find a comprehensive list. With that I will
do my own research to understand things better.

Look on the British Air Cadets website - http://www.aircadets.org/acps.html. That section has alot on basic airmanship, aswell as MCQs at the end of
each manual. (ACP stands for Air Cadet Proficiancy; start at level 1 and work up to level 3/4 on the manuals; it's not much, but it's a start). Point you towards ACP32. Vol3 out of all those inparticular. Plus, all Air Cadets are expected to have passed the relevant theory exams on these topics, up to level 2 (leading cadet) before they're allowed to fly - that no doubt has changed as I've not been in the Air Cadets for many, many years!
