Google Earth has brought its flight simulator to the web, originally an Easter egg in the desktop app. No download required anymore: just open Google Earth, hit Explore Earth, then Tools > Flight Simulator. You get two aircraft: the F-16 for speed or the Cirrus SR22 for sightseeing. The experience works best at slower speeds, as the app needs time to stream terrain and satellite imagery in real time.
