Gunship (1986)

Don't think I ever played that - gunship 2000 was a close as I got I
think.

 
I played a lot of it on the Atari ST and found it lots of fun. It had a
really good balance between giving you a simulator feel while also being
rather playable. In comparison I really didn't get on with Fighting
Falcon as landing was a complete nightmare (at least for me) and even if
I managed to finish a mission I might end up just ejecting as it was
better than crashing.
 
The next one I played was Jane's Longbow 2. Unfortunately by that point
in my life I no longer found much enjoyment in spending up to hour
learning how to land with a damaged engine using auto-rotate!

I don't remember which Comanche I played (or if there was more
than one), but thought that was quite a bit of fun.  Sneaky
helicopters seem pretty bad-a**ed to me.
