In this side-scrolling shooter, players control a sturdy biplane and must attack enemy trucks driving on the road below. Patrol planes and anti-aircraft guns complicate the gameplay, but success is determined by the number of trucks destroyed. If not enough trucks are destroyed, the supply of replacement planes decreases, while it increases as more points are earned. Bullets fly everywhere, hitting the plane, and a display shows how many times the plane has been hit – after nine hits, it crashes. Fuel and ammunition are not a problem, as a friendly airfield appears. However, the biggest danger comes from the ground, as players must dive sharply to shoot the trucks, leaving little room for evasive maneuvers. At higher difficulty levels, the game becomes even more challenging.
