I downloaded this simulator from :
http://www.icosaedro.it/acm/download.html
Tried to compile and run it.
I am using Puppy 2.15CE.
I started ./configure, the process when for awhile then this error was reported :
"Your system does not support either random() or rand().
Do I need to compile this with something other than C++ ?
Thanks.

Give this a shot. I compiled and (briefly) tested. I didn't read the instructions, but found Page Up and Page Down are throttle and the mouse controlled the yoke.

P.S. I am not sure of exactly if any additional libraries are needed if any, as my Puppy has alot already installed.

Thanks for your efforts, much appreciated.
I ran the program it started I selected the options I liked. It began and then a segmentation error occured.

Try running the following from the terminal :
ldd /usr/local/bin/acm
and see if there are any missing libraries.

I discovered a few thing and go to the finish line. Per the home page I changed the video depth to 800 x 600 x 24 instead of 800 x 600 x 16.
In the configure menu I turned off:
show initial splash screen
enable sound effects
Use DIS protocol ( drones )
I wanted to just learn to fly only anyway.
the simulator started without errors.
No to stay alive as I leave the ground.
