This was a cool simulator for the C64.

I really enjoyed gunship when I first got it. Picking out weapons based on what your targets are, flying around in that 2 fps gameplay on my C64 I thought was the greatest thing I had ever experienced. The commands were all pretty true to what you would see on flight sims now. The ability to jettison all weapons and fuel was a great touch to realism. The problem I had though was how much you had to memorize in order to play the game. Sure you had a joystick but in order to perform some moves or target enemies you definitely had to use both.

This is also one of thse games that came out with a manual as thick as a novella. So it probably didn't help that I was not into reading the whole manual in order to understand the game.

But this was still a lot of fun to even just jump into and play.
