It looks great, but it keeps crashing.
Phasmic
My gen 4 IPod crashes every time I start the first mission. I'm a big fan of WWII flight sims, and would love to fly this once I can fly.
Don't buy
Xt pilot
Not worth the money. I am a pilot and I am comparing it to other fly games out there that cost less. Terrible flight control, bad layout of controls, and no way to re-configure them. There is a button for a manual but nothing exist. No help no manual. Very hard to play this game! Waste of money at this point until they make it more user friendly.
Not up to Simviu's standard
El Tigre II
This is the buggiest piece of iOS software I've ever bought. Not anywhere near the quality of their Battle of Britain game. Crashes, will not even load sometimes. If I could get my money back, I would.
Not up to par
Duncan ok
Not nearly as good as other games by these folks. I like P-51, Spitfire, Battle of Britain....this just doesn't cut it. All simviu air combat games have common faults. 1) all the planes fly and fight the same. while in real life each had unique performance/maneuvering characteristics, all 4 of thee planes I fly in these games (Spitfire, Hurricane, P-51 Mustang, and P-40 Warhawks fly exactly the same in terms of maneuverability, speed, and armament punch. I think they designed a basic airframe and set of handling characteristics, with the same armament, and cosmetically changed them on the outside to represent whatever you thought you bought. Also, there are no dogfights with targets of opportunity for you to engage, just z 2,3,or 4 preselected targets to shoot down then mission over, even with plenty of fuel and ammo left. In this one too, the Japanese planes are almost untouchable, even using the tactics of the time, don't dogfight, dive through their formations, dive away, and then climb back for an attack on another flight. Finally, the engine sounds like an asthmatic washing machine that doesn't change speed no matter where. You set the throttle.
Not bad
Fear Me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
At first I was a little disappointed w quality of the graphics, but once I got into the missions all got interesting. Japanese fighters had different flight characteristics from the German ones in the Hurricane, Spitfire and P-51 games from same developer, so that you had to turn harder. The bombers were tougher to defeat (keep your distance). The only annoying thing was that even after you accomplished your mission, you had to stay up in the air till the clock run down.
Don't Buy

I got sucked in by the AVG theme since I've always been a fan. This is not a sim. No cockpit view, you can't takeoff or land. After finishing your mission (shot down all lemming bombers) you can't exit without losing unless you let the timer run out. Fly over horrible graphics and no real flight model for another 8 minutes? I don't think so! Waste of money.
