It's a classic, but VERY elderly
And that brings forth the usual problems of poor graphics and sounds by today's standards. And of course, the disadvantages of running through DOSBox! Would GOG be able to supply an emulated Amiga version? Could be a legal minefield for them, but the Amiga version was by far the most superior. This was of the era when PC ports were much inferior to their Amiga counterparts. The sounds in this port GOG offer are very bad, pretty much beeps and farts only I'm afraid. The use of colour is particularly eye straining as well. The game is a total and utter classic though, a serious waypoint in the history of flight sims! It's worth it for the sheer nostalgia alone - and it's VERY cheap when on sale (I got it for 60p)! Not giving this 5-stars like all the other sheeple on here is probably going to generate some "rage downvoting" from shallow, narrow minded individuals (we'll soon see just how many of those there unfornately are), but 3 is what it is worth IMO! So tough if you don't like that.
