I knew it had to be one of those early microprose flight simulators, but had to open and click through every single one of them to find it. Never knew this one even existed!

I read Sid Meier's memoir this year, then looked for Solo Flight on GOG. Was happy to find it here.


EDIT: OP updated, 2 screenshots left to be identified. Amazing work so far by all.

The forces of random have spoken, we do have a winner: congratulations, Cavalary! Please let me know how you'd like to spend your USD 5 prize.

This went pretty fast, absolutely stellar work by all who participated. I'm just amazed how good an eye some of you have for this stuff, even when there is little to go by. I don't think I could do it. But I should know which community I'm asking this to solve, haha.

Thanks everyone for having some fun with this. I appreciate you all. Happy Holidays again.

Congratulations Cavalary! I love cases like this when the underdog wins with only a single ticket! And thank you, chevkoch, both for the generosity, and for an entertaining diversion and deep dive into faaaaaar too many screenshots! Fun way to spend some time which I'd otherwise have just been idling away.

Wow! That was... entirely unexpected, considering the odds. And the work and skill of the others. I mean, 6 each from fronzelneekburm and gogtrial34987? Wow for that too. Feel like I should apologize for that stroke of luck there. And thank you for participating, and of course to chevkoch for the engaging giveaway.

I actually gasped when the one-ticket holder came out on top, but that's random for you :D
And you are so welcome, thanks for taking part.
