Having got used to sim, I find realistic both hard and annoying to play. I can push the plane harder in sim because I have flap control, which gets me into spins all the time in realistic. And that stall warning is very annoying.
But I agree - the constant tree top hovering does get tedious in sim. Kudos to whoever suggested setting the weather to counter it. Although that brings it's own irritation at constantly shifting through the cloud layer, and never knowing where your opponent is, even if he was just in front of you. Playing at sea helps as there's no point hugging the ground then.
The ground hugging is mainly a tactic born of the invisibility of planes in sim, but the patch has fixed that. If someone can use altitude to their advantage, that tactic could now become more prevalent.
