First flying game i got into was a "Janes" game called Longhorn, you flew in a US attack helicopter, this game totally kept me glued to the screen for months, I went out and brought a MS sidewinder joystick cost me $150 odd bucks at the time which was seriously dear, i would of sold my mum if i had to... well maybe not but u know what i mean. I became addicted to helicopter games, Commache, and a little gem called Hind with crappy graphics triangles for mountains & everything green & brown but nice detail in the Hind and ground troops. It had the russian accent it had good AI. They never made a Hind 2 and the Longhorn series slowly died. They should bring them both back imagine the eye candy we would get now.
