    I can still remember playing the original Gunship on C64. When that Apache hovered into the screen accompanied by the tune of Wagner Valkyre (the same you hear in Apocalypse Now! when the Hueys attack the village).
    I liked to clean the whole map, ignoring my mission and reloading & refueling several times, because you only had limited ammo, just as in real life. Getting the CMOH was the ultimate satisfaction. :-) Then later on C64, Amiga and PC Silent Service 1&2, F-19, F-117 Nighthawk, M1Tank Platoon & M1Tank Platoon!, Hunt for Red October, F-15 Strike Eagle 1-3, Gunship 2000 & Gunship!, B-17 Flying Fortress, Harrier Jump Jet. Fortunately you did not have to relearn each flight sim at least, because the keyboard mappig stayed the same. It just grew from release to relase, till every botton had like 3 functions. :-)
    Oh, one funny thing i remeber of the C64 original Gunship. I had no manual and each time you approached your base to refuel you were asked a callsign by your flight tower, which served as a copy protection. You could only answer this if you had the manual for they asked words on a specific page of the manual. If you typed in the wrong word or none at all, the AA of your base started firing at you and you had to emergency land (shut down the engine and declutch the rotor) before they killed you, otherwise the game was over. If you managed to land on your base after all you could reload and reload, refuel, repair and then continue. :D

    For those as confused as I am. The ORIGINAL game "Gunship" was from 1986, and featured flat shaded polygons with no textures. "Gunship 2000" came later in 1992 BUT still featured flat shaded polygons with no textures. As featured in the video in the description (th-cam.com/video/e5cs0qBopFI/w-d-xo.html) Other than the link given in the description, which states the game is called "Gunship!" (note exclamation mark in the title) as the third game in the franchise, but it is hard to find any information on it online. It is however listed as a microprose release on Steam.

    I loved Gunship (Microprose in USA/Atari in Europe) when my old PC was on XP.
    Are you playing (flying) Gunship on Windows 7 via Steam games or from a DVD?
    If so, was it straightforward without doing computer gymnastics, or rather lots of troubleshooting?
    Gunship is officially compatible on Windows 95/98, but ran perfectly on my XP.
    Not so sure on Windows 7...
    Really nice video presentation of awesome Gunship!

    I don't know if anyone can help me, I've been looking for a combat flight simulation videogame for years.It's very similar to this one, but it's not. The one I'm looking for is a green camouflage plane with a shark's mouth painted on it. There was background music and it took place in lush mountain ranges, or so I recall. The first mission was to destroy artillery. I don't have any more details except that I estimate it to be between 1995 and 2000. I was very young. If you have made it this far, thank you very much.
