Flying the Tomcat 95% of the time during my DCS career. The Phantom was some getting used to. I did about 15 touch and go's tonight, and made a bit of a breakthrough. Instead of setting trim and riding it down to the ground like you would the Tomcat, the earlier advice of setting trim a bit lower, and hand flying it onto the runway worked wonders for me. I set trim to 15 units,flying 180 kts on the downwind, rolled into the groove with the rudders and used pitch to control my AOA made Jester VERY happy. Got a lot of nice compliments. Thank you very much for the advice guys.
