        I use joysticks for FPS cause my hands are to crippled to make
 use of the kryboard for games. He might try a joystick, and throttle
 combo. I use a CH Flight Stick Pro, and a CH Throttle control system.
 It's not as acurate as a mouse + keyboard, but once you get used to it,
 you can give a mouse + keyboard user a hard time.

        Larry.
