I always liked Topgun Fire At Will PC sim. The one made after the movie. I'm not talking about its realism though. I liked the little windows that popped up showing person on the other side of the radio talking. Also, the RIO in the back seat said some crazy fun things every once in a while. The missions were pretty cool. It was made for internet gaming, but I don't think that ever took off (he he took off).

Mig Alley was pretty sweet and another one I liked was A-10 something.  I can't seem to recall the rest of the title :old:

LOL B-17 ..

.. the question about being good at flight sims is a bit of a paraphrase from history.

Invariably, when someone found their way to page 870 on GEnie,
..discovering Air Warrior, they would post how they were good at flight sims
..and list all the ones they had played and how great they were in it.

It got to be a standing joke.
Because no matter how good a person is at BoB or Red Baron or <insert any drone game here>
..'good against Drones is one thing' .. (-tm Han Solo)

Air Warrior and now Aces High continue the tradition.
People will embrace the Hate and club you like the baby seal you are :)

This aint no flight sim.

Falcon 3.0 was the first flightsim that i really felt was 'realistic'.

the other arcade shooters were great too. . .

Did anyone play Jane's USAF.  That game blew my mind.  I've bought it twice actually.
