9. Google Earth – Flight Simulator
How to Get the Google Earth Flight Simulator
With Google Earth open, access the Tools > Enter Flight Simulator... menu item. The Ctrl-Alt-A (Windows) and Command-Option-A (Mac) keyboard shortcut works too.
Choose between the F-16 and SR22 plane. Both are fairy simple to fly once you get used to the controls.
Pick a starting location in the next section. You can pick from one of many airports or just select to use your current location. If you've used the flight simulator before, you can also begin where you last ended a flight simulator session.
If you have a compatible joystick connected to your computer, Google Earth will let you select Joystick enabled, and you can control your flight using the joystick instead of your keyboard or mouse.
