Which one should I buy?

I've seen lots, from a free download to one costing nearly £200. Currently looking at the Phoenix software, which seem to do everything I want. Anyone have experience of this one or others?

I've got Realflight. 100% happy with it.

I bought a copy of Clearview and it's great, I use it with an XBox360 pad for the dual analogue sticks. Also there are loads of add-on aircraft available free from various sites, I think I've got about 200 planes and 50 helicopters.

I use Aerofly Pro Deluxe. The new version, Aerofly 5 was released earlier this year.

It features training modes specifically for helicopters.

I use Phoenix and its very good for helicopters.
Plenty of different models available and the physics are pretty realistic.

+ 1 for Phoenix. It's fantastic and has probably saved me thousands!
