Flight Unlimited is no longer available from Looking Glass Software
(they went under) but it has been rescued from the great bit bucket in the
sky by Global Star Software.

The graphics aren't the latest whiz-bang, but it runs great on anything
better than a 486 :)

I borrowed Great Planes "RealFlight" (probably the "Classic" version now)
from a friend to try out, and found it to be useless.  Avoid this one.
I can't comment on the newest version.

I've not tried any of the free sims, but I hear some of them are very
good.
