Title: Flanker 2.5
Post by: MC_Honky on September 25, 2003, 09:26:39 AM

Just bought it cheep.  Just-looking at the instructions makes my head spin.  This is my first attempt at a modern flight sim.  Is it worth it?  Any feed back would be great.

I tried the original Flanker and was overwhelmed with the complexity of the avionics.  I won Flanker 2.5 in an online contest (actually, 2 copies, one of them autographed by a developer) but got hooked on MMOG flight sims and never really got into Flanker 2.5.  If its anything like the first one, you can expect it to be extremely realistic in the avionics instructions, and (at the time) a very realistic flight model.  I don't know how the flight model measures up to today's standards, but at the time it was cutting edge.
