Overall a good flight sim, althought I think the EIII is much more maneuverable then it should be, especially when given an AI novice pilot.

Sounds could be better.. the MGs are drowned out by the engine noise and I have not seen any seperate volume sliders for effects, engine, etc..

A good range of options like autorudder, aiming help, autopilot, easy flight, etc.. to help pilots get used to the aircraft.

Would be nice to have a "batch" discount for all aircraft to be included instead of nickle and diming each one. I waited for a discount sale on the addons and got 4 of them. Without discount all the STEAM addons would have been quite expensive. I remember RB3D had more planes and was far cheaper.. around $40 when it was released. Now its on STEAM for far less and if you have a Glide wrapper the graphics are fairly good for an old title.

For a more modern version of RB3D this ROF title is a reasonable move up for graphics, reasonable authenticity, and interface. If they made a batch sale for all aircraft and addons I think it would get a lot more attention, especially considering it is already several years old.

Overall I do recommend it since you can play it with a few planes for free and then decide which addons to purchase from there.

Thanks.
