Fantastic plane design, and excellent sense of speed. I prefer this to Space Harrier's nonsense, but it still suffers from very shallow and repetitive gameplay. I think one of the issues theses early pseudo 3D games struggled with was how to balance your speed with the introduction of enemies on the screen in such a way that made them reasonable targets for long enough. The solution of having them fly over you from "behind" just doesn't work that well.
