Your first flightsim addiction?
« Reply #60 on: November 27, 2006, 04:39:59 PM »
My first seems to have slipped my mind, it was flying a corsair around in Aviation Adventure game/video pack.  You had to try to avoid being spotted by the enemy radar although there were only 6 or so missions, and you couldn't shoot, it was fun.  There was also a paper airplane game in that pack that was entertaining.  After that it was Strike Commander.  I'd make my dad start it for me just so i could pick the "cool bombs" and then eject once i started to fly:rolleyes:

After those ones it was MSFS 98

TOPGUN on NES.  And then Jetfighter (Number one), soon followed by JetFighter 2.

ace of aces, used to have page results memorized.

My first adictive flight sim was Red Baron played on a 386. I spent hours playing that game. MS Flightsim 5 hooked me for a long time though I had played MS 3 and 4 before that. Next I got hooked Sierra's Aces Over the Pacific.

My first online flight sim was WB 1.2. That one cost me an arm and a leg!

I typed in tapco.com and got some military site where I can get anything short of a nuke.

The original Xwing got me flying, and then Red Baron 3d got me into flight sims with gravity.  All downhill from there (haha).  :)

lets see i think my first addiction was MFS 98 i was 8 and have been flying flight Sims for as long as i can remember. i could land a 747 going from Georgia to Hawaii with just about the exact measurements you would need in real life. now my dad had to help me with that but i could still land at 8 years old hehehe.
