On the using the map to find the enemy and navigate, in the "Red Baron" PC flight simulators players have to use a reproduction WW1 paper map and try to navigate from circling over the ground and trying to figure out where they are in realation to the target they're supposed to be attacking.

Avoiding flying over enemy FlaK batteries, aierodromes, etc.

There is no "you are here" map button in Red Baron, players have to learn to navigate.

And of top of this players have to cope with the unstability / fragility of whatever aircraft they're flying, changing weather, cross winds, look out for enemy fighters, fuel and oil guages.... it makes realistic and simulator mode in BOP look tame.

Now if a WW2 sim had all of that Foz would be even happier.
