My old cyborg gold stick works fine (its about 3 or 4 years old now) and I have friends using MS joysticks and logitech sticks. Seems like almost anything will work.
I went out and bought and Saitek Evo and I'm EXTREMELY happy (usb), what I've read is avoid Force Feedback...it just interferes and is expensive...moreover wireless blows because of batteries.
I use the Logitech Attack 3, its like the extreme pictured above but not as many buttons and is probably about half the price but its still perfect for games like BF2.
I use the Logitech Extreme as well, the one pictured in the above posts. It makes flying a jet freakin awesome. Dunno how many times I've been being chased, and ducked under a bridge or crane at the last moment, or flew sideways in between the Nuclear towers at that one map(cant remember the name at the moment but you know the one), only to have my chaser pile right into it/them. omg, funny stuff!
However, its not as easy to fly the chopper with said controller, it takes a little getting used to the level of precision. gotta be real careful with a chopper lest you end up inverted, which is a BadThing(tm)
I use a Saitek Cyborg 3D Force Feedback, had it for a year or so and its my favourite one so far. I had the origional Cyborg 3D before it, but got knackered playing too many flight simulators (Microsoft's and Falcon 4). You just need to look at the reviews to see how good it is, most mark it above 8 out of 10. Check here.
However this is personal preferance, and I would highly recommend you get one, even if its basic.
