	I suppose there are aspects of Harrier Strike Mission and Fokker
Triplane that make them 'flight simulators', but mostly they seem to me to
be mere war game type programs. I would like to see something for the Mac that
would allow you to fly a Cessna (for example) into a choice of real-life   
airports.. alot like the Microsoft flight simulator.
