They are counter intuitive, and in no way replicate the control manipulations required by a real pilot. A real, well trained pilot will simply reach for the desired control and use it. In a sim with clickable cockpits you are forced to change your view, fumble with a mouse, and maybe it will "grab" the control on the first try, but maybe not, all the while you are not looking out of the perspex and more than likely you are seconds for augering in.

A waste of programming time.

I want a combat simulator, not a control procedure simulator.
