If anyone is interested, the X-Plane flight simulator has several space shuttle situations, such as full re-entry. X-Plane strives to be very realistic, and re-entry is very challenging.

There's also Orbiter, which is probably even more realistic since its main goal is realistic space flight. http://orbit.medphys.ucl.ac.uk/
