  1. Likely the best WWII flight action you'll see for some time, and with user made missions and aircraft in the offing, it doesn't get any better than this.
  2. The best World War II flight simulator ever. [Mar 2002, p.90]
  3. A vitamin injection of originality, putting the sheer joy of flying back into combat flight simulation. It's an experience you do not want to miss.

    Beautiful graphics, superb realism, runs smooth even without top notch hardware. love the cannon smoke, it's like I am looking through the lense of a gun camera, beats MS CFS 3 hands down! Expand

  3. This totally blew me away like no game has since. For the 2012+ audience, if you dont mind the now old graphics or have an old computer and have a shred of interest in flight, get this game (or get IL2 1946, which is the most updated version and still costs next to nothing now) Expand
