Interface
Upon starting the sim you are presented with 4 main choices from this screen:
Let's look at these options from the top:
Learn to Fly Flight School
Lessons
Flight Simulator Help
Pilot Training
The lessons are not listed in order of difficulty, which can be a little confusing. The first lesson listed is "Introductory Flight Boeing 737-400" .... which might be a little intimidating for your first flight !
Half way down the list I found "Introductory Flight, Day VFR : Cessna Skylane 182".
