I also quite enjoy the current flight model like Mr. Nowak. Though I do agree the gimbaled mouse aim should be toned down a bit. I actually prefer flying with the alternative mouse control when using the mouse, the one that locks your aim/crosshair.
Edit:
On a sad note, Leonard Nimoy (Spock) died earlier today. RIP!

I pity the ones not bold enough to try Star Citizen right now, dismissing the flight model and saying there's no flying just shows 2 things, that people haven't played the game or that they are really bad at it!
I'm no pro pilot/aimer but im way better now than 3 weeks ago, I can feel the progress I've made , from combat awareness to aiming and controlling / flying the ship's... The amount of adrenaline whille playing SC reminds me of the times where I started pvping online, that rush... that fear and accomplishment/frustration on every win/defeat...it's hard to explain...

This right here... Loving it!

Wow. I bought my $30 Aurora .. just haven't bought the pass yet; didn't see the point. This is making me reconsider.
What's that vision blur that happens? As in, what causes it.
I've been trying it since it was released.
I play with HOTAS and TrackIR, because I don't wanna hear about playing it with anything less.
So far it's a disaster and I could never make myself play it for more than 10min.
There's absolutely no sense of flying, acceleration, deceleration, mass, inertia...you know, the usual things related to flight...
But yeah, here's to hoping.
Btw. do they still call it pre-pre-pre-pre-pre-alpha ?
Yep I have been playing it as well, feel the same way as you.
The movie posted above is played with Hotas + Pedals and TrackIR 5.
So the complaints are really more from lack of personal skills/practice to do good than the game itself I assume!
I recommend following and watching that YT user, he post's often, also keep practising, this flight mode is unlike anything I've played before, it required a format of all I knew about flying, basically you have to get a new complete set of skills to succeed!
Here's another good one from same pilot:

Ah ok, thanks.
Am I bad at it if I after my 3rd logg in I passed 12 waves in swarm and then simply pause and logg off from the game cause I get bored?Or am I bad couse I can't feel the rush of adrenaline after I frag someone with zilions rockets flying it in straight line and twiching it from time 2 time?Can't you understand that some of us maybe just maybe are playing the games for 30+ years and that we can't be turned on just on GFX and hollywood game effects?I guess that you starts PvP online in a time when I owned my 7th computer....Look man I am not pity you or the anyone alse that like this kind of FM/GP it's cool it's just find,nothing agains that at all...What I hate is the lies that are been used to promote SC from the very begining till now,the machinery of the propaganda that even in my wildest dreams I could not expect that will happend from the man that supose(his claims) to be a diffrent from the biggest corporations in the gaming industry,instead of that he is even 2x worst than many of them will ever be.....Greed for the $$$ it's so obvious in the current system that SC posess(atm),marketing tricks that are been used in SC campaign should enter into the text books for the PR's & banking managers all over the world.I said it many time's before and I will repeat it again my OPINION is based on the current state of the game and my life experince in this particular subject....I do not know how will this turn at the end but my six sense telling me that this could be one of the biggest flops in the gaming I ever saw or let's be a bit more realistic it will be a finished game that contains mix between few popular games in it(CoD,sims,superman 64,Freelancer,second life,entropia)wrapped up in shiny GFX foil and picked up the customers $$$ on the Katamari's way all over the world even before it was made... ...After all BDSSE could stands for a Best Damn Space Scam Ever....

Nah, I won't. I don't care about him, or his skills, or his time spent in AC or his practicing, or his posts or anything else related to him, or anyone else trying to persuade me to "give it a try again" or trying to influence me by criticizing "you probably didn't try enough".
What matters to me is: I put my HOTAS on the desk, TrackIR on my head, fire up AC, then see my ship act like a box of matches in space, then get disappointed again, lose all will and interest to continue and finally close the game.
For now, it's a (pretty packed) turd to me, but I'm hoping that this flight model is temporary and/or unfinished.
If not, then they should have bought Frostbite engine (Battlefield series), at least it has better, more mature flight models than Cryengine.

I'm pretty sure what you are seeing now is what you will get when the game is officially out. So if you dislike it now, I bet you will dislike it later on as I bet nothing drastic will change. Some people love the flight engine, some people hate it. People are just different and there is no way a game can be made to everyones liking I guess.
Edit: One week until the next livestream. Looking forward to the FPS module and hopefully they'll also talk about the social module which is due to be released a bit after the FPS.

Star Citizen plans on honoring Leanard Nimoy in some fashion in the game:
http://partedveil.com/index.php?p=1"e=4519483
"Hey guys,
No petition necessary. I think it's safe to say that Mr. Nimoy was an inspiration to all of us on the team, both acting as Spock and because of his core, kind humanity. We will find an appropriate way to honor him.
I'm a big guy, but I'm not too big to admit I broke down sobbing when I heard the news. Nimoy as Spock shaped so much; even if you weren't a Star Trek fan, he was an essential part of the culture. And if you were a Star Trek fan, you surely saw yourself in cold logic masking deep passions, or his romantic ideal of the loyal best friend. And it was all the more impressive that the man behind the character was such a good person. I know he had a good, long life, and one truly lived... but the world still seems a little darker this afternoon. "

Why are they doing it?Is the Mr.Leanard Nimoy a Star Citizen fan?Did he ever play the game?Or this is again a marketing trick and use of dead man's name?Can't CIG just leave the man to RIP,is Nimoy in his past ever ask for something like this or simmilar?If it is sure then why not,but otherwise I am seeing this again as a cheap&dirty way to gain some of the Star Trek fans on the board of the SC and earn more $$$$...

That is nonsense. FD will most likely name a station after him as well (assuming there is not already one that we have not found). Any SciFi community would want to honor him, he had such a large impact on so many people, and on the scifi world in general that it only makes since that communities would want to honor him. It is very common for MMO communities to honor people that have had a large impact on that world and work.

+1 Indeed.
Let's wait till they announce how they plan to honor him..Ok...If they decide to give some star or planet,space station by his name or something like that, it's a one thing but if they decide to make a ship or shield,weapon that later on they selling it in VD for a real cash that's the other story...

I agree, if CIG come out with a "I Heart Spock" shirt for the VD store, I will be the first in line with pitchfork and torch. But I do not expect that to happen.
