My parents got me a copy of Harrier Jump Jet by Microprose one christmas. I can’t even begin to imagine how many hours I spent on that game, both actually playing it and studying the manual for it. Still have the manual actually but the floppies are long gone.
After that I got every Microprose sim I could get my hands on, F14 Fleet Defender was probably my favorite after Harrier.
Then I kinda lost interest in simulators until Arma came along, spent years where I hardly played anything else.
Nowadays though ETS is pretty much the only sim I play.


Motorola D160. That thing was an absolute tank. Switched to the Nokia 5110 but still kept the D160 for the more rough stuff, camping trips, construction, etc.
Can’t say I miss having that thing strapped to my belt though 😅
