NOTES : | I have split this in 2 versions, since I have 2 tapes where:
- the inlay is different
- the cassettes are different
- the manual is different
- the programs are different !
Both manuals were scanned, the 2nd in GIF to spend less disk space.
V1: probably the earlier verion
-------------------------------
Small manual, labelled "Oric-1", that fits in the cassette box.
Inlay has various ads.
4 programs on the tape:
[md_demo.tap]: mission delta demo
works fine despite parity errors (see below)
[md_ecole.tap]: mission delta ecole de pilotage
works fine despite parity errors (see below)
[md_test.tap]: mission delta test
[md_jeu.tap]: mission delta interception
V2: probably the later verion
-----------------------------
The manual is bigger and is labelled "Atmos/Oric-1".
There are many other small differences with the manual:
- coloured cover
- table of contents
- few triangular illustrations
- loading instructions are different (normal, according to the programs !)
- explains that one can't see outside when in flight
- There's a memo, a take off and landing help guide
- and other details...
The inlay doesn't have the ads.
The tape is obviously mislabelled: it still describes 4 programs though there are only 2 left, recorded on both sides:
[md_jeu.tap]: both ecole de pilotage and interception (merged)
[md_test.tap]: mission delta test
The demo is not on the tape anymore.
General
-------
The "ecole de pilotage" is the same program than "interception", but with no enemies.
Other tapes seem to have been mislabelled, I have seen tapes supposed to be "terreur", but that holded Mission Delta !

hé no !!
You understand nothing because it's not a game !
will you put 1 point to microsoft flight simulator because you don't like simulator and are unable to learn flight basic notions ? pfff
it's a soft absolutly unique on ORIC, it must be compared with other simulators of 1983, not with Space-invader !
Simulator Interest & realism: 6/5 !!!! |

My first flight sim but oh, what a waste of money.
It was soooo unintuitive and disappointing to fly with instruments, I hated it all the way, and maybe this is the reason I never got into realistic flight sims later on.
At the time I managed to take off as the manual was describing everything step by step, but i never managed to go any further.
Such an unrewarding game!
Only thing is I remember being so excited after I managed to fly above my home town that I looked out through the window just in case =)
Ancestor to: Flight simulator series (and just as damn boring) |

Here is an excredible réalistic flight simulator
of course there is no 3D view only counters and numbers
but first you learn the basic to fly , second to fight
and after you go to the mission : EXCELLENT |
