Flying Corps is a fantastic World War 1 aircraft simulation.  Our demo is a DOS version of the game, but if your PC is up to it it will also run in Windows 95.

The demo is a cut-down version of Flying Corps, with a reduced landscape, no campaigns, fewer aircraft and only one of the many up'n'at'em missions.

The demo mission is from the game, called Squadron Encounter, where three flights of four aircraft have to take on the same number of the enemy in a head-to-head game of chicken. Choose your crate, either the Albatros or the Sopwith Camel and aim to see off the enemy and, most importantly survive.

NOTES ON VERSIONS

v1.00a view patch

This version contains the following additional view keys;

Home               Front inside cockpit view
Page Up            Right front inside cockpit view
Page Down          Right rear inside cockpit view
Delete             Left rear inside cockpit view
Insert             Front left inside cockpit view

The  camera  will only remain on these views while the keys  are  held  down. Releasing the keys will cause the camera to revert to the previosly  selected view.

Holding down the Num Lock key in conjunction with the above keys will produce a version of the view with the camera pitched upwards.

Left and right views from the cockpit are available by holding Alt-4 and Alt-8 respectively.

The versions of these views with the camera pitched upwards are duplicated on the following key combinations;

Ctrl-8             Front cockpit view
Ctrl-9             Right front cockpit view
Ctrl-6             Right cockpit view
