Two more PC Flight Sims on the Way...
Sierra seems to be releasing Red Baron not just for the X-Box 360, but also the PC.

And an outfit named Abacus has announced Mission: WWI Combat. They seem to produce mainly addons for FSX, so I assume this will be another one. If they're trying to compete with OFF I wish them luck.

Nice.

I was looking at the Knights of the Sky mod, but they've been on vacation for 4 months, which is just plain stupid. "Loaded with work." Pff. They ever try engineering?

HA!

I spent thirteen months tracking down ACM 1918. Have you ever tried to order through an Amazon in a language you failed in College? City-Interactive kept promising Wings of Honour--Battles of the Red Baron would be released outside of Germany, but was it? Nooooo...

It's hard being a collector of WWI Flight sims in America. It really is.

I don't know how that would work out, although I might as well say that it was actually easier to get the Amiga-based Wings to run on my PC than the pre-windows WingNuts or Dawn Patrol.

If you like, you can have mine. The game isn`t what you expect, believe me.

I managed to pick up both, but if you would be kind enough to keep an eye out for flight games released in Germany, it would be greatly appreciated.

I don't know of anyone official that has stated the development team behind Knights of the Sky is on vacation.

Next, the sim never was conceived as a mod.
