Simple Physics-based Flight Simulation with C++
> YSFlight
I'm aware of YSFlight (used it since 2015), but it has a lot of issues and repo does not include whole commits history (it was opensourced year ago as a snapshot of latest version code base with few commits on top of it), so might be not a good example of simple flight simulator.
Physics of YSFlight described in community fork repo.[0]
Till YSFlight became open-source, physics was a "black box" and there was a research on reverse engineering its physics using game data logs.[1]
Also, there is another fork with few fixes & enhancements, including in its flight simulator physics engine.[2]

Simple Physics-based Flight Simulation with C++
One of the chains is brihernandez/SimpleWings; Hernandez is better known as indie dev Why485, creator of Tiny Combat Arena, a throwback flight sim to the A-10 Cuba era. (Of course the reborn MicroProse picked it up.) https://store.steampowered.com/app/1347550/Tiny_Combat_Arena...
Why's GitHub repo is full of useful things for game devs, especially Unity but also C++. https://github.com/brihernandez/Ergo is maybe most relevant to this post.
What are some alternatives?
