The most recent versions of Google Earth incorporate a flight simulator!  Press <Control><Alt>A to turn it on (this also adds it to the menu).  Set your screen for a 4:3 aspect ratio to be able to see all of your instruments.  Download from:

Also, click on the View menu, and select Switch to Sky to see the remainder of the universe, in scale, with  Hubble and terrestrial astrophotography!
