Aces high in a mainsteam british newspaper! 'The Times'

heres what they said;

PC, free download, then $14.95 (£7.49) monthly subscription. All ages

This second world war flight simulator, where you battle it out in online dogfights with other real players, has been around for nearly seven years. This latest version boasts updated graphics, numerous new terrains and more than 70 different aircraft.

It is superbly realistic but novices will find the learning curve steep, and you’ll need a proper flight joystick to control the plane. But for those who persevere, this is as close as you’ll get to real air combat without joining the RAF.

Nice.

As the guy said though, would have been better if they'd included a link.

added a comment with link and short review telling the guy about the trial, and to take a look at the site to see if he's interested

Notice the AHII ad on the site? They better give a good review.

Wonder what would happen if someone took out an ad in the local paper for AHII?

check out the parternship thingy on HTC's webpage. You can make some jack if you can get people to subscribe and stick around a while.
