I'm pretty new to flightsimming (i have 20 hours flight time or so logged in Volanta) and i don't have any IRL flying experience either, but i've always wanted to be a pilot. so i'm kind of treating it like a virtual PPL training. flying the JF Piper Warrior II, doing touch and goes, stall practice, that sort of thing. i've also learned a bit about radio navigation, as a supplement to VFR flying just because sometimes making out landmarks can be a bit hard on a 27" 1440p monitor.
once i feel really comfortable flying the Warrior, i want to learn the Arrow (constant speed prop, retractable gear), then probably the Black Square Beech Baron for twins. Also want to learn tailwheel, mostly for the historic stuff like the warbirds and the DC-3 and 247D. then maybe seaplanes.
so, treating it like a chance to learn the systems, procedures, and stick & rudder for more and more complex aircraft. eventually i may even try my hand at airliners, but they aren't a huge interest of mine.
