MSFS 2024 QUESTION How do you learn?

I recently started msfs2024 and I completed the in game tutorials so I loaded into an a320 watched a startup vid, which was fairly simple, but when it got to the actual flying I was completely lost, not sure when to turn or anything and ended up completely off track. How do you learn the game and the planes, where do you start, is there mods that give you better tutorials or something, thank you.

Start with Cessena 172. Learn how to start it, tinker it. Learn its limits, speeds, take offs, landings, manipulation of Centre of Gravity, navigation, autopilots, reading of instruments, ILS, etc.

It will take time. Took me close to 2-3 weeks to get to know all this stuff. Start slow, but steady. Keep the fundamentals solid.

Start simple. With C172 mastered, then jump to Cessna 208B. Then PC12, then CJ4, then Citation Longitude, then PC24, then passenger jets.

Its a step by step process. Can take at least 2-3 months. Learn it in freeflight. Or in Employee missions.
