Here's a stunner of an idea:

D/L the game and try it for free!

 You will have to decide for yourself. Both are great games. Only the kids get into "mines bigger than yours" contests about it.

Yeah...download it and give it a whirl.  HTC doesn't even make you give a CC# until after the 2-week trial.

I flew WB for quite a while, and I'm liking AH a lot more.  The view system got me hooked from day one, and the rest of the sim kept me flying...check it out for yourself.

Do yourself a favor if you try it, get with someone (like a trainer or someone online) who can help you get going right.  It really helps to get the views set up and to understand what you can and cannot do.

I use the key mapping and stick mapping feature to match all AH commands to the WB commands thus making it easy to adjust and not have to learn new buttons.  It doesnt take much to do this, as most commands are the same anyway.

Only two allowed  in 1 a/c, you and a gunner, or, switch to gunner position yourself and do the gunning yourself.  No Otto (TG) in this sim.
