** Playing the game with keyboard controls. Unlike most games where the stick centers itself after releasing the key, the yoke and pedals stick to where they are until you make a new input, this makes helicopters borderline impossible to fly correctly. You can enable mouse yoke but it's only marginally better and you lose the ability to click switches in the cockpit or hold space to look around. At the very least, a Microsoft [=SideWinder=] Precision series joystick or any other twisting joystick makes the game ''much'' easier. Even a gamepad offers a better experience as you have yoke/cyclic (left stick), rudder pedals (triggers) and view (right stick).

*FromBadToWorse: The mission ''Yakutat Mail Run'' involves a long string of these. First, the weather already isn't cooperating, as a snowstorm is moving in on Yakutat, it's late at night, and visibility is poor the whole way through. Then, about halfway along the trip, your vacuum system fails, depriving you of the ever-important attitude indicator and horizontal situation indicator. Then, ATC informs you that they're having radar trouble and can't give you vectors, meaning that you'll have to do the full procedure. Then, as you're trying to execute said procedure already down vital systems, one of the engines fails. And catches fire.
