review by Shekky_ca, Jun 9 2003, 12:12am EST

This Flight Sim has been out for quite some time now but has been one of my favorite flight sims released on the mac. The realism makes F/A-18 Korea cry for realism. There are some things I can complain about this game is that it supports only 2 players online flights and no combat. Though with all these options comes complexity. Figuring out how to set the options to fly an online flight took some time and me and some friends finally figured it out.
