:Yeah, I wouldn't mind one a bit different myself.  I get a bit sick of the

:say a Spitfire, with some decent ground fire (NOT just SAMs), do a little

:locking the radar onto 'em and launching off an AIM), trench strafing.......

Sounds like you guys are looking for Wings from Cinemaware. Not the
highest in terms of realism, but it does have dogfighting the old
fashioned way as well as bombing runs and strafing runs. Nice story
line too. I liked the game myself.
