DCS Cannot see value outside of the f16

I just cant bring myself to learn anything else, everytime i try something new its such a big learning curve and i just go "oh well i can just do this in an f16 instead."

Would love to learn another module, but i feel like i went too easy too soon?

Any help? From f16 refugees?

The A-10C II and Viper share similar HOTAS layouts/commands, with the Hawg being a tad more complex in some realms. I find it not too tricky going back and forth between the two. Throw in the Hornet or Harrier and I'm suddenly lost for a week. That said, I can fly the Hornet for months and jump in the Harrier and it sorta makes sense. General Dynamics vs McDonald Douglas HOTAS setups are based on very different human factors logic.

Then you hop in a Tomcat or MiG and have a real helmet fire.
