I love flying in videogames. Don't you love flying in videogames? Modern vidya has some cool flying minigames. Flying on buckbeak in the ps2 version of harry potter 3 is probably my favorite, but we're here to talk retro.
What is your favorite retro flying vidya? It can be a minigame or the main mechanic, just talk about flying.

I love Pilotwings.

PW64 is a great game. Got all gold medals and perfect score on all missions except one.

I used to play the hell out of MS Flight Simulator when I was a kid. Crashed way more than I landed, but still loved it.

OP you really gotta try the Panzer Dragoon series games. The first 2 and the Xbox games are rail shooters, and the third game is an RPG.

I love the SNES Pilotwings but the N64 one always looked kinda bland to me. After hearing this though I think I'll try it out.

There's a ton of easter eggs and personality throughout 64's islands, particularly Holiday Island and Little States. I highly recommend giving the game a play for all that + the mission variety.

Same here except my game of choice was janes advanced tactical fighters. I would do b2 bombing runs all the time and blow shit up. While watching flyby mode.
