I remember when i was younger I used to play this a lot and then girls would come and knock on my door and ask me out and I was like "not now, i'm playing wings..."

This game is the only Flight simulator i have enjoyed. No starting, no landing, no flaps, no using every key on keyboard to make it fly, no hours of stydy manual just to get into air.

Only the joy of shooting fokkers out of the sky.

The in-game diary was also something that gave this game alot of character. really nice.

I played this so much I got attached to all the characters they mention in the diary. I also got obsesssed with the Red Barron. Man, this game was an absolute gem.

@ctanyol ... Good old Cinemaware didn't go anywhere, they are still here:

Go to the Archives for some free games. Like many other retro Amiga developers they are all re-releasing their games on Ipad2 etc. I have been asked to be a game tester for Hybris on the Ipad2 can't wait for that.I love Cinemaware's Amiga Graphics, you knew straight away from the quality that its Cinemaware. Basketball games and baseball games and the awesome It Came From The Desert etc.

Oh, I loved this game! Always ended up dead because of AA-fire or mid air collisions though :)

man, i loved this game. I remember one mission it was me v 9, i got most of them before they put me out of the skies, but on the way down I got the last of them, and survived the landing, only to die a few missions later in a mid-air collision.

Ahhhh Can't wait for the ipad version Cinemaware are making!!!!

Incredible game! Good old Cinemaware where did you go?

I remember this is one of the early games where you could improve your pilot with successful missions. Character development made it better. Once you got your stamina to IRON MAN you would not die the first time you crashed your plane but your stamina would go down.

The music was fantastic too!

I got to be so good at this that I used to give my flight mates a good spray of bullets right at the start of the mission, so the Huns would take them down easier, leaving me to shoot them all down at my ease. Good old Farrah never worked it out, bless him.
