The Australian Defence Force has released a free game, ADF: Aviator, which lets you sample life in the armed forces is like from the air:

Based on real-life operations, ADF: Aviator places you in the pilot's seat of some of today's most advanced aviation machines. Spanning across the globe, you will take part in modern combat missions in all types of conditions, from the raging sea to the arid desert where dust storms cloud your vision.

Check it out. Download requires some fairly hefty registration though.

eP why else would they creat these things?

Coz 'Topgun' might have lost some of its recruiting power.... bold call, I know.

The little pilot game they had before this one was even worse.
