B-17 Flying Fortress: The Mighty 8th

This game gives you the feeling as no other does. Many people play IL-2 Sturmovik to get the feeling of true dogfights and bombing. While this game is old, it still offers immaculate physics as well as the opportunity to control every aspect of the daily bombers life. Positions go from various gunner positions, the navigator, radio operator, bombardier, and even pilot. It doesn't quite stop there, as one can even take it a step further and control friendly/enemy fighter aircraft operating in the airspace with the B-17. You can step foot down on the runway as a bomber commander, or take it a step higher and take control of the entire bombing squadron. As the squadron leader, you can plan the missions (including loadout, select what bombers, and what point you wish to bomb on the map) and also be part of the mission inside of the leading bomber. This game gives me a feeling of excitement as I wait for my 1000 lb. General purpose bombs spill their way into Brest harbor, ruining enemy trading routes. I'm proud to have this in my library, and can honestly say I've put many hours well spent into this game.
