"Shaping up to be an excellent game"
4 stars"

After having played the demo for this game, I feel that this is going to be one of the best flight simulators to date. There is a great deal of realism, a very good control scheme, and the game gives a certain sense of urgency, makes you feel as though your actions will be crucial in turning the tide of the war.

The air to air combat is excellent, you can fight with assistance on which limits what your plane can do, but makes flying easier, or assistance off which allows you to make use of the full capabilities of your plane, preforming tight turns, and a maneuvre called the “slide” which allows you to slam on the air-brakes and turn around all the way almost on the spot.

The only unrealistic element i have found in the game is aircraft missile capacity, which is no doubt there so that missions have a decent length, since if your plane was to have a realistic missile loadout, you would either have to return to a landing strip to releoad every couple of minutes, or the missions would be over in just a couple of minutes.

Overall this is shaping up to be an incredible game, and may be the best combat flight simulator to this day.
