Ok, as in my other reviews for such sims you need to ask yourself the question: Why do you want to fly such an old simulation? - You are flying a F-16 with the avionics of an "A" model (characteristic is the radar/electro-optical display and the stores control panel) and additionally via seperate addons the F/A-18 Hornet and the MiG-29 Fulcrum. - Participation in a serious and big training course. Lot's of Red...

This game is an absolute masterpiece, and even though I think A.T and the first one are more fun, this one is fun to pick up and play for a while. For the time this was made in, around '91, this was one of the more realistic flight simulators out there, and the word goes that many computers with even the most top tier 486 processors back in the day weren't able to process this baby at full frames. Listening to Queen...

For those of you who don't mind a learning curve, and are willing to spend some time to get good at a game, or to accept playing at lower difficulty settings if you don't want to learn all the details, I have to reccomend this one. Be sure to look through the manuals to learn to keys, and find the quick reference cards for each of the aircraft. This was among the first serious "study sims", and although it may not...

This is THE best MS-DOS flight sim ever made, period. I don't think anything else comes close to the sheer amount of detail and features they put into this program, and even now it's amazing how much they crammed into it. It might even be the best pre-2000s era flight simulator of all time if we're being honest. Obviously, there are many abstractions. The game depicts an early F-16A which is relatively abstracted...

If you want a hard simulator and Realistic one and don't care about the graphic falcon is for you! Also i recommend it because since back to microprose they are working to make it better and their customers service is the best!

This game is fantastic. It does several things that modern day flight sims have yet to recreate. • Great manual. I suggest you read the whole thing and maybe take notes. • Easy to play "sim". You fly multiple types of missions from takeoff to landing. Plan the missions, load up the weapons, find and identify the enemy (and avoid getting shot down), and employ your weapons. This provides a lot of things to learn but...

I love this game! They put a great deal of effort into this game which was state-of-the-art at the time. I wish the Falcon team were still making combat aircraft simulators like this, but hopefully Falcon 5 can capture the magic that Falcon Gold did for its time: provide a realistic simulation of top-of-the-line combat aircraft.

I played this game for many hours when I was growing up-it's much easier with a good joystick
