Sitting in the plane or not ?

[Xavier Mouraux]

Hello again,

I was reading Don Lowe's column in RCM and was surprised at his recommandation to beginners RC pilots: "establish yourself as in the cockpit ... and then the control motions required never change".

I havn't flown outside for a few month now so I can't try to verify what I do. I am asking you guys who may have notice it before. Do you fly like you are sitting in the airplane or you look at the plane and move the sticks automatically ?

Another question related to flying: Were do you look when you pilot an RC plane ?
a) The plane in general
b) The nose of the plane
c) The tail of the plane
d) Some distance in front of the plane (were you want it to go) 

Thanks 

Xavier

note: I have not been in this hobby for very long so I don't know everybody's history. If someone could give me a small resume of Don Lowe, I will appreciate.
