simulation is designed so that the aircraft operate and fly to pretty decent flight dynamics as the real aircraft.

Shockwave
Productions recommends that individuals who have purchased this obtain a copy of the pilots manual for the aircraft they choose to fly in this add on. It is easy to see why because real World War II military bomber pilots with their copilots went through checklists before takeoff with flight engineers reading off the instruments and had years of very extensive training. However, if the simulation player so chooses he doesn't have to go through these complicated procedures and controls featured. Instead the full realism can be turned off in Microsoft's flight simulator's menu. Then again the player will be missing out on a great learning experience.
