I'm confused

[Parmenion]

Hi,
I'm still struggling with the last tutorial mission (the one where the planes have no names above them and you don't have the external camera view) and I was under the impression that this was the Simulator mode.

However, reading through the threads, I see perople talk about Arcade, Realistic and Simulator mode. I play on the XBox and I was only aware that there was Arcade and Sim modes. Is there a 3rd 'Realistic' mode too?

The manual isn't very good at explaining things (it doesn't tell me how to set trim properly which I seem to be unable to do) and I didn't see any Realistic mode available.

Appreciate the help for a noob.
