I have the latest APPLE ][ version and it's a fair simulation of the Piper Archer II (PA28-181). My only complaints are (1)It is almost unflyable using a Joystick (as documented), and (2) They used a poor choice of colors for the Artifical horizion (in monocrome mode it is very hard to tell top from bottom, guess I just have to spring for a Color Monitor). -- Stephen C.
