Who remembers it?



It wasn't stellar achievement in realistic depiction of flight but still fun to play and certainly more immersive than today's sim titles.

I had Jet Fighter 3 or 4. I still have a t-shirt with and F-22 that says "Global Peace through Deadly Force"

I loved flying the F-14 in the game.

I think I somehow missed Full Burn, but I had Jetfighter 2 and a couple of the later ones. Not sure I ever got Jetfighter 4 to work.

Used to love the F-14 in Jetfighter 2.


I refuse to buy a flight sim that I have no interest in playing, on the off chance that MAYBE someday they'll make the one I really want to play.

I had all the earlier versions of Jet Fighter but never had the Full Burn game.

The one thing I thought it did especially well (for that time period) was that it gave a good sense of speed at low level flight, unlike many other sims which couldn't model fast moving planes at low altitude at all.

For instance, I had US Navy Fighters 97 (I'm sure you hardcore simmers remember that one fondly) and I once did a carrier fly-by at over 600 knots and it took 10 seconds to go from one end of the carrier to the other. LOL

Wow, I missed the Jet Fighter thing completely. I love the carrier interior thing and the loadout screen was pretty nice as well. Imagine if they did that with today's technology.
