    I think, very nicely, (because we all went through that stage) that you still have to think about what you want to achieve before buying anything.
    Desktop..but with some panels...Cheyenne...737...PC12..FS9 FSX...
    You might have to set some priorities.
    My humble opinion

    Re: Newbie Help Which MCP

    Yes its true
    basicly I`d like to fly mostly with GA 65%( cheyenne, pc-12, b200) and 35% heavies ( pmdg737 and maybe leveld767) and i use fs9 and fsx.

    I know its hard thats why Im here) I know its difficult to have something which can be good for everything.

    You may end up with average everything.
    The fun and interest of flight is doing things 100% correct, because your life and your passengers life is on the line.
    If you do otherwise, in a simulated aircraft, especially a desktop, you are just playing a sophisticated Nintendo and you will get bored within a year.
    You ask for advice, I'll give you mine.

    Go a step further than desktop.
    Build a Cheyenne cockpit (does not have to be an exact repro), with some GF units, like a small radio stack, (with 2 units you can emulate evreything)an autopilot, a yoke and pedals, and two toggle units . Or buy the VR unit (which is totally irrealistic)
    With that you will be able to work most systems. No interface cards, no drivers, no problems, just connecting USB plugs.
    Buy second hand from members when available.
    Use FS9 for a superb fluidity with an average computer. .

    Get a Cheyenne manual and you are in for years of learning and fun.

    Over and out.

    "The fun and interest of flight is doing things 100% correct" I totally agree, I have PPL so i know what you mean.
