You progress to new missions as you take out your targets. Various settings can be adjusted before beginning play including control type normal or pilot , skill level and whether gravity will affect the plane. You must drop bombs to take out the ground targets, and this action also represents a key danger for you.

Unlike the modern bombers that drop bombs on targets far below, early aircraft engaged in semi-suicidal bombing runs. The pilots started at high altitude, then tipped the planes nose downward towards their ground-based target, and pulled up before they hit the ground.
