You are right, I meant to write : when your cursor is in a window for a choice like weather or view or when you made a choice in one of those windows then I loose control over flying, including my joystick........

When you switch view to exterior you loose all controls, including joystick, throttle etc. Switch back to 'interior' and give one mouse click anywhere and you get controls back.
It's a bit weird, but try.......
