    Playable DOS version availableFirst step was the full reverse to assembler, second step is to convert the assembler to binary equal compiled C code, all this still on DOS until no assembler code is left, then the porting to Linux,Windows will startReversing tends to bring in new bugs and its not easy to find all bugs in such old and reversed code - but so far everything seems to worktry finding open bugs if you got version 451.03 of F-15 around combined with Dosbox or a real DOSfind latest DOS release here: https://github.com/neuviemeporte/f15se2-re/releasesthe f15_se2-*.zip file contains the replacement executables for the DOS gameThe airforce needs YOU!

So probably just gonna read the dev journals, rather than fly this particular bird again...

    If it's the game I'm thinking of, floppy copies were going around my middle school in France at the time but this was a game that without the manual, good luck even getting the plane off the ground. I seem to recall a mode where you started out in the air. Fun times.

    I've played this game so much on a Laser (Dutch computer brand) 286 with VGA monochrome screen, in the early '90s.
