Knight`s question about destroying the carrier : if you hit it`s conning tower and then land on the deck you get the message mission complete, return to carrier. It takes a bit of practice to land on its deck and to take off again you need quite a long run up. I taxi to the bow of the ship and then accelerate towards the other end. Also about F-16 Falcon. I have attempted to make a backup of it but have had some trouble actually copying it. It will let me copy both disks but the first one seems to include a routine that determines whether that disk is a copy - if it is then you are allowed to take off but after about 20 seconds all systems fail and you crash ! Has anyone else noticed this and does anyone know of a copyier that will overcome this and does anyone know of or have any idea how to write a bit-copyier ? Also to do with Falcon, is there any truth in the rumour that it won`t let you set up a serial link with another computer using the same copy (or its first disk and a copy of its second disk.) ? Thanks alot, Mark.
