I tried a flightsim once. Never again. The problem with them for me is how tedious they are as entertainment.

You pretend to do all your checks, program the flight plan, take off, then...sit there for three hours while your pc flies down to Spain

Then you land the thing, which of course is very irritating if you stuff it, having waited three hours, so in all that, there is about ten minutes of interesting stuff to do.

This is probably why no one ever invented passenger sims, you know, a seat, a bad meal & a 7" tv with a movie you've seen before plus an expansion pack consisting of next door's unpleasant child who you can get round to kick the back of your chair all day.
