Hi there. I recently bought secondhand another copy of this cool game
(lost my original ages ago), but the seller did not include the card
with the serial number *sighs* Can anyone please supply me with one? I
am happy to prove I own the game. Ask me to hold up the CD with a
message of your choosing in a photo, or whatever it takes. I'm no
pirate. I just want to play this fantastic flight sim again and I'd
really appreciate any help doing so :-)
Once I have a serial will it work under OSX in classic mode? Or will I
need to install it on my old gaming iMac running 8.6?
TIA,
Jamie Kahn Genet

It runs under OS 9.2 on my G4 500...don't think I've tried it under Classic.
....OIF sucks, though.

Both Hornet 3.1 and Hornet Korea 1.1.1, running a stock Rage 128
graphics card...which is probably an issue running under Classic. I
need to try that - haven't that I recall...

I can't get Fly! or Fly!2K to work either...they won't retain my
controller settings. At least they didn't with OS 10.2...probably need
to try that again, too.

Thanks anyway :-) I run most old Mac games under 8.6 as it's the most
compatible MacOS ever IME. I also keep Macs around running System 7 and
6 for the really old or poorly written games. There's really nothing
that's worth keeping 9.x around for.
Cheers,

Thank you Richard! :-) That's very cool of you! I love these old flight
sims! There's something about the new ones that doesn't grab me in the
same way.
