It does run in color on the Mac II (just 16 color, but its still color). As far as I know few other games do this (and no other flight simulator I know of, please correct me if I'm wrong). Although some of the dashboards are nice, the lack function. I find it real hard to fly the spad through the slalom race because of the lack of an attitude indicator. The slalom race and the reno race, while fun on the IBM PC, are too tough on the mac. The mac also doesn't have the neat analysis of the "follow me mode" available on the PC. (it shows 3 plots of plane position, 1 per axis, with a line for ideal and for yours). Still, its a lot of fun.
