I ran Flight Simulator X successfully (without activating, so still in trial mode)
today as follows with wine-1.3.35:
1) copy both discs to a directory to work around http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25558
2) run in a virtual desktop to work around http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25139
3) apply winsock patch from http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26411

The game then runs well enough to let me destroy the ultralight
in the first tutorial :-)

I filed two bugs,
installer slow ( http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29367 )
crash on exit ( http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29368 )
but they don't keep you from playing.

Nice that one can run FSX without having to load any native DLLs!
