I remember playing that! I had Red Baron, Aces of the Pacific, Aces over Europe, and the video-gamish Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffe. Also had F-15 Strike Eagle III and Chuck Yeager’s Air Combat. I don’t know how many hours I wasted after school playing those games...

I had Aces of the Pacific and Aces Over Europe. I didn't have a joystick. I played with the keyboard.

I also noticed an early form of wokeness (or political correctness, as it was then called). Although these games prided themselves on accuracy, the German WW II planes in Aces Over Europe didn't have swastikas.

I also had the Warthog helicopter video game, and (I think it was called Aces of the Deep) a submarine war game.
