Started on what I believe was called Pilot on a Apple GS in about 1988. But the first one to really grab me was an arcade game called Prop Cycle. You looked teh ghey riding it but it was a totally cool experience...

The thing blew air on you and everything..

Maybe it's time to turn this into a how many computer/arcade/console flight sims have you played. I don't even wanna think about how many I've played over the decades. Would have to approach a hundred.

I played that book game Mash , around 1984. My first sim addiction was Hellcat Ace by microprose. It was on casstte for my Atari computer.
