Hmmm...look kinda familiar.
That having been said, it's just as fun to play as it's predecessor and a lot easier than some of the more up to date flight games. If you just want to fly around and shoot at things without having to learn to fly, this game fits the bill.
Frankly, I prefer simplicity to having to learn to use every button and control just to get the plane flying to it's target. I have Battlestar Galactica, which is easy to fly, but too realistic since everything is a moving target. Very realistic, but very hard to actually hit a target.
