The current version of Chuck Yeager's AFT DOES run on a IIci with no problems and AMAZING smoothness of the animation. It's a good flight simulator for beginners, but has little to do with real airplanes. The controls don't behave correctly when the plane is in strange attitudes, and there's really nothing much to do except fly around. (No instruments to speak of, nothing to shoot.) The races are fun, but that's about it. Still, the animation is very impressive on the IIci.
