A comeback after a long break

I use a Microsoft sidewinder 2 stick myself . Got it off craigslist and it's waaay better than the Logitech ff . I could NEVER play any sim with just a keyboard and mouse . That's arcade tactics .

If this is the same Alien I am thinking of.. what are you talking about man.. get a dadgummed stick.

It is recommended to fly with a joystick.

For what it's worth, Rise of Flight just had an update that incorporates mouse control as a virtual joystick. It's a free download for the basic game, which incldes two flyables and all other aircraft present as AI allies and opponents. If a bit of WW1 aviation will scratch your itch then it might be worth grabbing that as well.
