yeah, I remember playing this. I also remember playing battlehawks from right around the same time (WW II air sim). I never got the torpedo runs right, but I was pretty good with the dive bombers.

What about F19 Stealth Fighter:

I loved that game. Joys of nostalgia.

What about F19 Stealth Fighter:

Probably the most nerve wrecking game I played as a child!

Its the reason I know that Tripoli is in Libya and has some serious radar installations around it!

 

[Doyzer]

Very true.
