Dawgfight
Although Dawgfight is not a die-hard simulation, it does incorporate decent realistic factors such as stalls (more likely at higher altitudes) and fuel (which you can get by collecting fuel parachutes that are ejected from falling planes). The game includes an "auto-roll" feature, which is a great boon to laymen pilots everywhere, although landing the plane is still a very tricky and challenging proposition. You can practice your flying techniques for as long as you want before the competition begins.
With colorful EGA graphics, fun gameplay, and a diverse range of goals, Dawgfight is an entertaining game that both armchair pilots and arcade fans should take a look. Controlling the plane with keyboard is naturally less intuitive than with a joystick, although it won't take long before you get the hang of it. Two thumbs up for this underdog!
