OMG! This game was the stuff of dreams back in the day! A true awesome classic flight sim that gave you control of the Tomcat in all its glory! I might have to get this regardless of whether I play it again.

For 20 years old, it still looks pretty damned good.

Does it allow you to take a ride into the danger zone?  :2funny:

Most definitely, especially if you feel the need...the need for speed.

thats painful to look at.
Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

Agreed.  Even though it may have been awesome for it's time, she's showing her age.  I don't think flight sims that old age very well.

Although the campaign is probably still more interesting than 75% of the flight sims released in the past few years.  ;D

I saw this, and went IMMEDIATELY to steam to purchase F-117A. I have it already from GoG, but it takes the damn copy protection. Pain in the ass.

I believe that the Steam version bypasses this requirement. Could be wrong, just went through the preliminary stages of the mission. Gotta dig up a joystick.

 It hasn't aged well.

Conversely if they offered Secret weapons of the Luftwaffe, I would be all over it.
