ake to the skies in this enhanced version of Empire's classic World War One flight simulation, Flying Corps.
lying Corps Gold has taken the best elements from the phenomenally successful flight simulation of this spring, revamped them and added a huge number of gameplay and graphical improvements. Full details of all these enhancements are included on the What's New page.
nparalleled historical accuracy and attention to detail make Flying Corps Gold the most atmospheric flying experience imaginable. From the ultra smooth animation to magnificently detailed scenery and landscapes you will find yourself immersed in another world - a world where the majesty and beauty of early aviation contrasted movingly with the brutality and squalor of a bloody and horrifying war.
in some games the flight models and control systems for each plane have been smoothed out to make it easier for the novice to jump straight in. This approach, however, does have a cost, as many of the planes idiosyncrasies and special features are lost. Flying Corps Gold has dual flight models for each plane. The more forgiving model is retained for novices, while realistic options will provide a real challenge for the
seasoned flight enthusiast. In the case of the Sopwith Camel, for example, the "Realistic" flight model accurately recreates the plane's notorious instability and tendency to turn to the right. If the flight sim pilot can learn to master this, however, he will reap the benefits of the incredible maneuverability that made the Camel the most successful fighter aircraft of the period.
hatever your level of experience and skill, the philosophy behind Flying Corps is simple: games should be fun. We want you to truly feel what it was like to fly an aircraft in those pioneering days, to experience the agony and the ecstasy of aerial combat, to find yourself slipping back in time. You won't be disappointed.
