Take to the skies over Box Island. Dogfight other pilots and AI aces, or race the clock through the ring courses.
Start
Change any key in Settings → Keys. Take off: throttle up, roll down the runway and lift the nose once you're fast enough (flaps make the run shorter). Land gently on a runway, with flaps out, and stop to repair and rearm. Missiles lock on to a plane in front of you: keep it in the middle until it says LOCK. Flares can fool a missile chasing you. Pull too hard for your speed and the wing stalls: the plane shakes and the nose drops. Boost gives extra power until the engine gets too hot. A gamepad works too: left stick to fly, right stick rudder, RT guns, A missile, X flares, RB/LB throttle, D-pad ← flaps, → boost.
