As a pilot I don't view or use it as a "Game". Behind the project is a serious intent and that is to eventually qualify as a tutorial and testing platform with FAA certification. With that in mind, Aircraft have to behave like the real thing, consequently MS Flightsim is simply a game - we see mailing list items complaining that with Flightgear the aircraft will veer off to the left during the take-off roll, to pilots, that's exactly what happens when you roll with a lump of scrap iron strapped to your rear end. There are also other PC flightsims, not well known, that are used for real life tuition and testing.
