Name that game...

[Flinkly]

ok,

it was a side scrolling game with a side view and a top view, so you could line up your shots.  There were planes (biplanes?) motorcycles and trucks.  I'm pretty sure you flew the plane and shot at everyone else.  It was from the eighties and had limited graphics and color if i'm not mistaken.  I thought i remembered the name but haven't been able to find anything using it, and i'd probably just junk up everyones memories by listing that.  Thanks for the help guys.

oh, and i played it in dos on an old ibm (with that cool green turbo button that didn't seem to do anything), but it might have come from an old arcade game.  thanks again for the help.

Oh, man. I played that game a bunch on the old ibm pc. Sorry, but I can't recall the name for you.

I am pretty sure the name of the game was "flight". I can't find info on it though. I know at least that the executable was definitely flight.exe

YES!!! You rule flinkly. That was going to bother me until I figured it out. My work productivity was brought to a halt after I saw this post...
