Although very dated, the programming book Flights of Fantasy gives a bit of an idea about creating a flight sim in the C++ environment.
I bought the book in my programming days, unfortunately it predates DirectX so would not have much application in a modern programming context. - unless your into WinG programming????? It might be worth the .52c for the second hand version though there would be better texts around for $68.00!!!!!!!!!
