I run it pretty flawless in Win7 64bit with compatibility mode on Win98.

I bought anyway lol. Last time I played it I had XP.

Found a boxed, with manual and keycard version on Ebay for £15 so snapped it up.

Works fine with or without compatibility mode.

Actually the only problem I'm seeing without compatibility mode is music cutoff and sometimes, but not always, the mission voice doesn't work - but all the other speech if fine (i.e. tower, wingmen...).

Yep, Rudel has done fantastic work with this one, along with many others too, but he's the frontrunner in keeping it going. My only issue to yet resolve is getting my Warthog HOTAS throttle and pedals to work, other than that, it does work, with and withut compatability mode. You'll just have the annoying intro vides appear as blocky squares, so disable them once you get configured.
