The only non-computer game I've got is Attack Sub by Avalon Hill, haven't played it in years - the wife's not a big fan

Mustangs & Messerschmitts, a game designed by a friend of mine some 30 years ago. It's air combat using a model plane on a stand that 'flies' around the floor.
Some examples (all from 'Canvas Falcons'), the WWI variant of the game:

The flight stands

Sopwith 1-12 Strutter blowing it's attack on a pair of Rumplers

My scratchbuilt Caudron G.IV

The same being escorted by my Nieuport 10 and Morane-Saulnier 'L' parasol
