Oh yeah! I think i played a demo once... couldn't find the release in our 
country though.Or maybe i waited too long (probably that's the case ...).

Who knows...maybe Derek Smart invented this game too ;) (since he said he 
was doing his game since 1989 ,which is laughable )


I know that this newsnet server doesnt talk about normal simulators ,but... 
do you remember a very well done air combat sim called PANAVIA TORNADO ? 
Seriously,this one was intense and very realistic for that time.It even had 
functional MFD displays. cool

Oh,thanks for the links to Megatraveler screens !
