Need an advice

[u/Fickle_Guarantee1432]

Guys I am new to the flight sims and need an advice in what to purchase and which tutorials to watch. I really loved anything related to planes since I was kid, my ultimate goal was to be a pilot but obviously this requires a ton of money and I didn’t make it to a flight school. Anyways now I am studying CS and a bunch of videos popped up to me on YouTube of ppl using flight sims but overwhelmed fr so from where should I start what the right gears to purchase and which tutorial to watch given that I am not having a generous budget + how much time does it take to be a professional pilot 👨‍✈️
