X-Plane runs on Android, and I believe it includes a Cessna 172 for free. This should run great on the Shield:
Fair enough. I'm obviously using "Linux" in a colloquial sense then. If someone asked me for a copy of X-Plane for Linux I would hand them this, not this. You're free to use "Linux" in any way you choose, but I choose to keep Android and Linux separate since Android is so vastly different from the majority of Linux distros such that I don't agree that it should be conflated with my c*olloquial definition* of "Linux" in the same way that a MAC isn't a PC, even though it is, technically, a Personal Computer.
FlightGear, a competent open source flight sim, should run on any machine you are currently using, even if it's that 2010 PC or a simple non-gaming laptop:
If you're on Android, there's a version of X-Plane:
