Post by: Estes on March 08, 2003, 10:16:22 PM

I was messing around and found my old chuck yeagers advanced flight trainer 2.0 on the old 5 inch floppy's :) booted it up and got me a screen shot..This is a pair of p51s taking off. Now admit it all you of..Graphicly this blows Forgotten battles out of the water ;)

Frankly, I had more fun with Chuck Yeager's Air Combat than I had with Il2. Ran fine with maximum graphics settings -on a 486 :), was almost equally plyable with a joystick or keyboard, and I couldn't stop shouting "Yhaaa!" every time I got a kill.
