The advanced flight simulator.

Thrilling Decathlon of Aerobatic Events in Your Own Personal Jet!

Kick the Tires and Light the Fires....You're in for the thrill of a lifetime in Acrojet, your own personal jet.

Acrojet simulates the BD5-J, a one-man, 200 mile an hour plus, jet aircraft that is fully acrobatic and everything a real pilot could want or handle! With Acrojet you will experience a new level of excitement and sophistication in flight simulation. Acrojet pilots participate in the Decathlon of Sports Aviation events, including spot landings, ribbon cuts, aerobatics and other high performance maneuvers that can only be accomplished in this very sophisticated sports aircraft!

Acrojet features outstanding 3-Dimensional graphics, sophisticated instrumentation, (including multiple CRT and digital electronics) and the outstanding quick response aerobatic maneuverability that can come only from a personal jet! Acrojet builds upon the fine tradition of MicroProse's best selling Primary Flight Simulator, Solo Flight, and uses the unique "in the slot" 3-Dimensional flying perspective to allow those pilots who have soloed in Solo Flight to experience the thrill of jet aerobatic flying! The outstanding maneuverability of Acrojet and its lightning fast joystick response enable both the novice and experienced sport aviation pilots to accomplish even the most difficult of sport aviation's competitive maneuvers, including the death defying inverted ribbon cut. And, best of all, one to four players can compete in their own Decathlon of Sport Aviation events for the title of the World's Greatest Sport Pilot, WGSP. Of course, to get the WGSP rating, you will compete against Major Bill, the Fighter Pilot, to accomplish the events even more quickly and efficiently than MicroProse's own real fighter pilot.

Acrojet is an exciting and thrilling advanced flight simulator that will challenge even the most experienced armchair aviators and provides thrill and excitement unknown in home computer simulations!
