Description

A simulation of WW2 air-warfare in which the player flies a B-24 as part of the 460th Bomber Group missions to Ploesti in Romania. The game operates on several levels, and the player will be required to act as a pilot, copilot, navigator, engineer and bombardier at different stages of each mission. The performance of your B-24 influences the effectiveness of your Group, Wing and ultimately the Air Force itself. B-24 is a simulator with a difference - you control your bomber (and the Group) from a top-down perspective rather than from a 1st person perspective.

Trivia

A veteran B-24 bombardier and a veteran flight engineer on a B-29 were designers and programmers of this game. Think about that - two men who saw action in the skies of WW2 and Korea decide, in the twilight of their lives, to write a computer game that simulates some of their experiences. In the 1980s, the computer gaming community was not as large as it is today, so this is an even more astonishing than it first sounds.
