It's supposed to be the closest thing to real flight there is. I have X-plane 9 for Android and its very good. A home user license for X is $90.it also has the ability to interface with hardware. If you buy the pro license, it becomes the core of a fully FAA certified training simulator, hours on which can be used towards a pilot's license. It's is available on Linux, Windows and Mac.
