There's still no real software for this yet.  There is the Joymapper by
David Lazar that will allow the PHCC to be seen as multiple windows
joysticks.  This gives the advantage of being able to map switches to
directx instead of keystrokes.  However, there is still no viable interface
for output of data bits and light bits yet.  There are several being worked
on but no one has released anything yet.

Primarily because there are better options out there.  One platform I'm 
looking pretty deeply into is the PHCC (Pic Home Cockpit Controller) 
platform.  The website is here: http://phcc.varxec.net/wiki/Main_Page

A number of people that use Falcon are getting into them.  I'm sure Jay 
can point you at the right forum.
