Firstly, thankyou for those in the community who bought DWT since it's release in August. It is great to see so many people enjoying the game, as much as we enjoyed making it. 😀

2020 for many was an incredibly challenging year. Fortunately there were also many highlights.

The release of Desert Wings Tobruk, added the Desert Air War to the fast growing flight sim world. 2020 was arguably one of the best years for flight sims ever. We saw a number of outstanding new releases and upgrades in other sims as well as Cliffs/Tobruk.

We are proud to be a part of the best gaming community in the world, and thank you all for your valued place within it. 👍

We all hope 2021 will see yourselves and families stay safe and healthy.

See you in the skies! 😃


Regards,

TFS Team

Mission: Navigate and land on 70+ Aifields, 'delivering' Christmas cheer to all.

Challenges faced:

1. Can he actually find all the known airfields on the Desert Wings Tobruk map in 3hrs?
2. Can he do it without crashing???
3. Can he avoid being shot down??

So few questions - so many answers!! ;)

If you can join in, we are more than happy to have a Christmas convoy.

TFS wishes all the flight simming community a Merry Christmas/Happy Holiday.

Whilst the year itself has been a dogs breakfast, on a positive note, for flight simmers, it has arguably been one of the best, content new release and updates/improvements wise since the heydays!

Thanks to our community, and all the content creators out there that are putting flight simulation out into the forefront of PC gaming.

Have a great day and most importantly, stay safe.

Cheers,

TFS Team.
