Description Airliner
Airliner was written in BASIC (to the extent that it is possible to crash it by entering the wrong data type) and simulates flight in an unusual way: it features no arcade action or cockpit view elements. Instead, the game displays a full instrument panel on the screen showing airspeed, flap angle, heading, altitude and rate of altitude change. You have to use these to take off and land in the correct place, dealing with the navigation of the aircraft in addition to flying it.
Included in the manual are full instrument panel diagrams and a map of the area (loosely based on the area near the Protek base in Scotland). Towards the end of the process a 3D view of the aircraft landing (or crashing) is shown.
