Red Baron was WWI, NOT WWII! So just in case you are confusing Wars, I'd say it could be Dawn Patrol.

I KNOW red baron was WW1! its just the WW2 flight sim plays A LOT like red baron does. it even has the same menu layout.

Here's a gif of Battlehawks 1942. I'll upload it to the Zone now.

It may be Aces of the Pacific and/or Aces over Europe, both from Sierra/Dynamix, original publisher/developer of Red Baron. The games looks almost the same (equal menu system, and all that). I don't think they were released on the Amiga.

thanx for the upload, but it's not it. looking at the picture i think it must be the games that Fissuras mentioned, but i remember playing it on amiga, and fissuras said it wasn't released on amiga..... so that can't be it either.

I am not sure about the Aces games not being released on Amiga, but they are not in the TOSEC databases. Since they are quite common on PC, and since its predecessor RedBaron is also a well known game, it is difficult to believe they are rare games.
