QUICK START INSTRUCTIONS



You are in control of a World War 1 fighter your job is to protect and 

guide a flight of four bombers to take out an enemy fuel dump. You may 

then Land and refuel before heading out once again.



Keep your Compass pointer vertical or you will run into heavy flak and 

also run out of fuel. Shoot down all planes EXCEPT for your own bomber, 

which will fly dead ahead of you. Fly around hilis - don't hit them - or

you will damage your propellers. Avoid barrage balloons If one of your 

bombers gets hit a replacement will fly in after a few seconds Bomb 

anything you like. If you can stay on course and survive long enough you

should eventually pass over the enemy fuel dumps which you must wipe out.

Watch out for suicidal Black Barons, and crack shot Blue Maxes. If you 

need a break, press the MAP key to inspect your progress - this also acts

as a PAUSE GAME control.



THE SCREEN



Your controls at the bottom of the screen include the following:



COMPASS POINTER: Keep this vertical It indicates the direction to fly in.

If it moves to either side, then FLY IN THAT DIRECTION or you will 

encounter intense anti-aircraft fire, at the end of the Game you must be 

on the correct flight path or you will not find the enemy fuel dump.



TWO PROPELLER BLADES: The Blue one is yours, the Green one belongs to the

bomber currently in front of your plane. The propellers get worn away if 

the planes are damaged by either GUNFIRE or HITTING HILLS. When either 

propeller disappears that plane is destroyed.



FUEL GAUGE: Shows your fuel supply Stay on course and you will be fine. 

Fly off-course for long and you will be an ex-pilot.



BOMBERS GAUGE: Shows number of bombers still flying. Once they have all 

been shot down the enemy will concentrate on your fighter.



AMMUNITION BELT & BOMBS: These will slowly disappear as they get used up 

After Long bursts of gunfire the gun at the end of the ammo belt will 

glow Red and your firing will become irregular.



CURSOR-TYPE JOYSTICKS



You may use the REDEFINE KEYS option to make adjustments for cursor type

joystick interfaces such as the Interface 2 and Protek. Instead of 

pressing keys in response to the prompts, just move your joystick.



KEMPSTON JOYSTICKS



You may select either of the two KEMPSTON options Once your plane flies 

up when you push the joystick forwards/up, on the other your plane flies 

up when you pull the joystick back down (ie: like a real plane)
