Yes, I remember playing that, still got it somewhere, it had approach plates included from Jeppeson's 1991 editions (just checked that, because I have all my approach plates in one big binder!), so I'm assuming it was from around 1992 or so, I had that for the Commodore Amiga rather than the PC. I seem to recall it was endorsed by one of Lufthansa's pilots, can't remember the guy's name though.

There was another one called 'Approach Trainer', which I also had, you might remember that one too! Similar sort of thing really and quite good it was too for the time.

Both of them were pretty cool, as they were from a time when airliners were not really in Microsoft's Flight Simulator. And at that time I'd never flown a real aeroplane, so it was really pretty exciting.

You do realise that getting nostalgic about software is a sign of getting old don't you? :rotfl:

Remember that too, from my Amiga times. I still have the thick booklet with Jeppesen approach charts (this sim marked a first with that, I think), and two, no: four high altitude enroute charts.
