G5s don't have Intel processors. If you have a G5, you're out of luck. If you do have an Intel processor, you can run Windows and any of the available sims.

Yup... G5 is a totally different processor.
There are one or two free/shareware MacOS flight sims out there, but nothing mainstream or commercially supported.
If you have a mac with Intel processors, there are a number of threads on the various online forums detailing how to set it up. Someone did a GREAT build thread over at RC Groups recently, but use that search function. I know there's good info here, KnifeEdge, Flying Giants, RCG, etc...

Basically, if you have "Intel Inside", you can run BootCamp, WindowsXP and any sim designed for WinXP on your Mac hardware... once you have WinXP installed and running, it's just like asking "are there any simulators that will run on a Dell?" "are there any simulators that will run on an HP?" "are there any simulators that will run on an IBM?"
