MICROSOFT ANNOUNCES OFFICIAL AVAILABILITY DATE FOR COMBAT FLIGHT SIMULATOR

Microsoft today announced the official retail shelf date for the much anticipated Combat Flight Simulator. Reaching software resellers' stores on November 5, 1998, Combat Flight Simulator is a World War II historical air combat simulation game that is built on the realism of the immensely popular Microsoft Flight Simulator engine, but with the excitement of air combat and head-to-head competition.

Combat Flight Sim includes eight realistically modeled aircraft, each with its own authentic flight model and all featuring accurately detailed cockpits. Players experience real-world navigation, based upon historical information and atlas data. CFS allows each PC aviator to define his or her own experience by choosing from a variety of aerial combat scenarios. Options include historical missions and campaigns, Free Flight and Quick Combat.
