Honestly mate it was THE flying game back then, it had everything! online you could fly RAF v Luftwaffe.
Its a straight forward fighter sweep for the RAF over france.
So...
you and your guys go for the "full real seting"
You take off rom a base in england and head for france. No time skipping etc, limited fuel - the works its full real. At the same time the other team are taking off from their bases in france and have no idea where your supposed to eb gonig they just have a rough area marked on the map. Anyway as the RAF flying the spits we all take off, and being eager to get into the fight you go full WEP all the way.....
Then just as you get close to where you need to go (a fair bit of time later) theirs this horrible sound and everyhting dies!! You've blown the engine beause of the constant WEP and high speed
Your not getting into anyfight. You have to do what you can to crawl how back over the channel
Or.....
You make it to the fight and locate a 109, you get on his six and follow him into a turn all guns balzing knwoing that you can out turn him you think he's yours!! BUT... because of the tight turn your pulling you manage to jam every single gun while your firing
effectively knocking you out of the fight.
