So long as you're running Windows in Boot Camp, any of them will.

to anyone who knows more than me,

I run aerofly in Linux would it be possible for those who run a mac to be able to run aerofly using the linux binary since macs are *nix based.

I belive you can get xplane9 for mac. Its a real flight sim but there is a section of models you can fly from the ground point of view. I don't know if it will see a box as a controller though. Wouldn't be much good if it doesn't. You can even fly real time weather for your area.
Im sure some one here will know if it would work. Or you could ask on there site forums. www.x-plane.org
just throwing this out, theres prob. an easyer way to go for a mac.

I've run Reflex on the Macbook Pro via Virtual Machine runs fine, except for the compatibility of the 3D engine...the model disappears and goes invisible!!!! (not sure if this problem has been fixed in VM2. However, in Bootcamp it runs perfect. Full resolution, everything on and the image is smooth with no stutter, even on the slower 9400 graphics cards, see not reason why I need to switch over to the 9600 card......

Any updates to this?

It appears that there really is only one that's ported to the MacIntosh, right?

Tower Hobbies estimates mid-September arrival for AeroFly Pro. This will run on any Intel-based Mac with a ATI or nVidia 3D graphics card. This softwaredoes not require you to run Windows on your Mac. Looks very promising.

AeroFly's web site has specifics on Mac and Windows system requirements:
