Please forgive my brainfade everyone...I certainly meant F-16 throughout
the entire article.

Two other things I forgot to mention:  

The keyboard response is quite slow.  To be sure a key is "registered",
you have to hold it down for 1/2 of a sec.  This can be frustrating when
trying to switch to guns when you suddenly find yourself flying head-to-
head and you are in missle mode.

Second, a tip for those using the mouse:  you might try to set the mouse
control to "tablet" for less sensitivity.  This seems to help stick 
control.
