| IENT will publish a single player game combined with an MMOG that puts
the player in the pilot seat of a Nieuport 17 biplane to participate in
exciting World War I era missions inspired by the FLYBOYS movie. These
missions provide the excitement of the close-in dogfighting action of
America's first fighter pilots as depicted in the movie.
"The opportunity to produce an MMOG based on a flying movie that uses
state of the art special effects is unprecedented. We are thrilled to
be publishing a complete online flying game for all the fans of the
movie and flying enthusiasts worldwide," says JW "Wild Bill"
Stealey, a US Air Force Retired Aviator and CEO of IENT.
The FLYBOYS Squadron MMOG demo will go live on September 7, 2006 for
players who register for this free download at www.flyboysgame.com.
Additional airplanes, terrain, interface and other features will be
available in the complete retail game when it reaches stores this
month.
The FLYBOYS Squadron game will include true simulations of 10 of the
most famous aircraft of World War I, accurate World War I terrains,
over 15 single player missions for players to hone their flying skills
and obtain medals and rank from flying accomplishments, and easy FREE
access to the MMOG where hundreds of other real aviators will be flying
in historical and real simulation of World War I combat. (Retail
customers get FREE access to the MMOG for one month.)

Ahh.. so DoA is being re-named and re-launched!

| Yep, and considering that every time I try it out as a free trial
there are about THREE people in DOA and THIRTY in Warbirds main arena
(compared to 400+ in Aces High II) why bother??
I would really like to play a MMP WWI Online sim but it seems like no
one else does, which of course detracts from the MMP part.

Yeah - I haven't had so much fun with a WWI combat flight game since Dawn
Patrol on my Commodore Amiga. I never found Red Baron to be that great
either. I even bought the Full Canvas Jacket update, and that didn't help
much either. Although, now that this topic came up again, I may have to dig
up those CD's and try it again.
I always welcome new flight sims even though it may be a revamp of an
earlier title. Just keep the genre alive, and I'll be happy.
