I use the CH Yoke and Rudders, I could easily live without the rudders, but now that I have them I use them.

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

At present i use the CH Products flight sim yoke. Happy with it but wish it had force feedback ::).

Currently saving for rudder pedals (crosswind landing are tough to perform only with a yoke).

Also, planning to save up for a Saitek X52.......would make flying an Airbus more realistic ;).
