Sounds like you may already have purchased the Flight Simulator. Microsoft makes a Professional version that's a little more expensive. I use it to practice instrument approaches. You won't learn to land with this. A buddy of mine learned how to fly using simulators and got his ticket in 40 hours! But there's no substitute for a good instructor.

Also, invest in a good yoke and rudder pedals. Finally, this is where the experience comes in...you have to really, really tune the sensitivity of the controls to get simulator to come close to the real thing.
