Burning It Up
Is this another F-22 or F-18 game? Well, yes and no. These 2 types are your options and they do the job pretty well, though the cockpits and graphic details are spare (the external views are in low visibility grey colourings anyway), so it has more of a gamey feel. The landscape (Arctic) looks cold and flashes past at a good speed, with targets on the ground well camoflaged, not sicking out for all to see as in other games.When it is loaded you have to configure the program to your PC system, its a bind as most others games configure themselves. The missions are Navy based so the option of taking off ánd landing on a carrier are there, with good graphic details of the ships, with other aircraft and even deck hands. The sea looks cold too. As for the Mig-42, well there is no plane in reality (Ever noticed how all MiGs have ODD numberings?), so this is all a fiction. Otherwise the game has enough to make it a Simulation, especially as it has clouds and jet vapour trails in the sky which are often missing in such programs.

In terms of reality, I would have to say that this is probably the most realistic flight simulator I have taken to the skies with since Falcon 4.0. If reality is what you are looking for, this will not let you down. However, a word of "caution"... It is not until page 59 that you finally find the in.. 
Microsofts Combat Flight Simulator: WWII Europe Series does exactly what is says on the box--it lets you fly Second World War aircraft in combat missions. You can elect to fly "quick combat" missions or take part in a variety of campaigns flying for the British, Germans and Americans. You can choose how realistic you want the flight characteristics of the aircraft to be. Crank it up full and too tight a turn will see you spinning to destruction... unless your spin recovery technique is po.. 
Very nice software for FS98. It has the present Air Force One VC-25A(B747) and the Air Force One used during the JFK era VC-137B (B707). Another 3 US Navy aircraft come with this package VC-137A-MATS/VC 135A STRATOTANKER and the E-3A SENTRY/AWACS(B707 type). The panels are excellent and the airport .. 
I guess tat this is a case of Buy One, Get One For Free(BOGOFF)! Air Warrier 3 is a very slight improvement on Air Warrier 2, though it all seems to be more of the same. The only difference is that the ground has some textures, which are okay, and match the grainy look of the cockpit interiors and w.. 
There is a Stuka in CFS already, but it has no cockpit panel and you need to Rename it as a bf109e and delete that fighter to make it flyable. This add-on allows you to fly that and a great variety of Stukas(Sturz kampfflugzeug) or Ju87s.
