I'll second this recommendation. CH Flighsticks (what they used in previous years) are frequently sought after items. I'm thinking of cleaning up some of our team's ancient crusty ones (and I mean crusty!) and seeing if we can trade them to newer teams.
Ebay is still a decent resource for these, as well as some of the more rare gameport devices such as Flightstick Pros (with a full hat on them like the current sticks, but still ambidextrous), CH Throttles, Pedals, etc. We're probably going to use a CH Throttle and Flightstick Pro combo this year, although we also have a handmade throttle that's worked well in the past (made from a pressure cylinder and transducer, actually).
