Well, this is NOT official Apple, nor official Microsoft, but I got
this from a fellow Apple employee attending the developer's conference.

(Actually, I stole it from rec.aviation, where it was posted by
a fellow Apple employee ;-)

---------------------------------------------------
A new version of MicroSoft flight simulator is definitely coming for the Mac.
Bill Gates demoed as part of a keynote address at Apple's World Wide Developers
conference! He demoed flight simulator cooperating with Excel spreadsheet. A
flight plan was stored in an Excel spreadsheet and then communicated through
the edition manager to flight simulator. Pretty Hot!
---------------------------------------------------

Finally.  I'll be able to work on a quasi-real simulator again!  Sorry,
no word yet on availability or pricing.  But I hope to find out more
sometime this week!
