Welcome to HardwareLogic charleygirl1215. I'm sure if anyone here has the game they would be more than willing to donate it but old floppy games are hard to come by.

I moved this to the gaming forum so everyone that comes to the site will see it.

Try this
old computer games and classic retro gaming titles for computers

I'd also post at some of the gaming sites like:

Game Rankings - Video Game Reviews, Release Dates, Cheat Codes
GameZone - PC and Video Games, Game Cheats, Codes, News and Reviews



INTEL E8400 // Gigabyte EP45 Extreme // 4GB DDR3-1600 // Palit HD 4870 // Antec 1200 // Seagate 750GB HDD // Zalman CNPS9700 // BFG ES 800W PSU

Damn, I remember that game. That game was the shiznit back in the day when I played it on my Apple II GS. I always named the members in my wagon after the people in the Top Gun movie. =)

I'm still trying to find a copy of "Wings of Fury" on disk. =)

It looks like the game is pretty much free now...
ClassicGaming.com - Game of the Week

I found this site. At the bottom there is a link to an image that you can open with the emulator also found on the site. I don't really know how to get it to work but it's there....




I Like Watercooling. D-Tek Fuzion, MCP655, MCR220

I'm guessing they just want the disc itself for some sort of showcase, they said it doesn't have to work.

I used to be the man at that game.
