I can still remember the one and only air-to-air kill I got in Tornado! (in the F3) Seriously though it was best as an air-ground simulator - the mission builder was absolutely fantastic, being able to schedule your AI planes on time on target, all attacking from different directions. I can remember the trill of the RWR receiver. I can also remember trying to get a customised autoexec.bat file and config.sys file that would let me load the programme in base memory - that wasn't so much fun. The manual was good as well, some 200-odd pages long.
Another old-school sim I used to fly was EF-2000. Took me ages to learn how to do the aerial refueling!
