A Boeing 737 takes off or lands every 5 seconds, somewhere in the world. The 737's are the backbone of aviation, but still a small percentage. So in conclusion, potentially thousands.
There is a flight deck on an aircraft carrier but, it is not an aircraft carrier as there are many other ships that have flight decks on them. The amphibious assault ship is a good example.
there are many sites that have free downloads for many of the aircraft types

In aviation, a flight engineer is a member of the aircrew of an aircraft who is responsible for checking the aircraft before and after each flight, and for monitoring and operating aircraft systems during flight. The flight engineer usually has a background in aircraft maintenance and may reasonably be described as the "technical expert" member of the operating crew.
The study of birds in flight helped many engineers to make wing designs of an aircraft. The aerodynamics involved in the flight of the bird impressed the engineers. Studying birds in flight hepled aircraft designers to get the Airbus A-380 airborne.
This varies greatly with the type of aircraft. However, it is the reason that the FAA (and other aviation agencies) require that taxiing aircraft be directed by ground personnel when within a certain distance of flight lines, gates, or terminals.
The flight deck is the name given to the area from which the aircraft is actually controlled, as in, pilot, copilot, flight engineer, and any other persons that are a part of the crew tasked with the actual control of the aircraft. The cockpit is a part of the flight deck.
In most airforces a 'flight' is 2-4 aircraft, next grouping is a 'squadron', usually 9-12 aircraft. then a 'wing' , 30-36 aircraft.
No, you cannot add aircraft to the demo of Microsoft Flight Simulator X.
The first flight of an aircraft was achieved in 1903 by Wright Brothers in USA in the state of North Carolina.
A test flight is an observation of the flight characteristics of an aircraft.
You generally use aircraft for flight
