It is pretty cpu intensive. I have an i5 at 2.5 and I struggle to run it well.

Well, it requires a 2 ghz or higher clocked CPU, yes, but I'm guessing that's just the bare minimum. Since it's simulating flight, I would assume that it takes a respectable amount of CPU resources to run most of the time.

If you're asking about if it would be able to run it, then I would say that it could, but maybe not at optimal average FPS. I searched for some flight simulator benchmarks with it, but I couldn't find anything specific enough.
