			     THE UPGRADE

To install the upgrade insert the floppy disk you received with your 
registration document into floppy drive a: (Or alternative drive if different 
on your system.)

Unzip the file from the floppy, into the directory on the hard disk 
where F-16 is installed. e.g. from floppy drive type the command 
PKUNZIP UPGRADE.ZIP C:\F16 (or the directory you used to install the game)

Answer yes to any overwrite warnings. 

			    THE EXTRA MISSIONS

General notes: We have really beefed up the enemy air cover in these missions. 
Taking out planes on the ground will thin things out a bit. If you can fly 
CAP without destroying ground based Migs, and still be flying after twenty 
minutes, you are doing well! The longer you fly the more enemy Migs will come 
up to intercept you. 

			  THE NEW AIRCRAFT (ADDITIONAL)

The upgrade leaves the f-16 game intact, and installs a game based on the
F-14 Tomcat swing wing USNAF fighter.

HINTS: [DON'T READ THIS IS YOU WANT TO BE GUNG-HO!]

      Most of the enemy aircraft are generated by aircraft on the ground.
      These are all parked at the sides of the enemy runways. destroying
      the ground based Migs reduces the number in the air.
      GOOD LUCK!!!

      Other enemy planes are generated by 'invisible' hangers so you will
      just have to hang in there with these ones!

      The enemy pilots are pretty good, but a bit fox four. With this upgrade
      comes a stack of enemy jets in the sky at one time. In the real World
      even the best of fighter pilots would run like Hell if faced with these
      kind of odds. However this is simulation land, and the worst that can
      happen to us is we get creamed, then take off in a new jet!

     
      If you are dog fighting keep the speed up on approach to the enemies
      six, then match speed with throttle setting 5 or 6 when you are close 
      enough for a gun kill. Use airbrakes (B Key) if it looks like you are 
      going to over-shoot. On head to head passes, get in an early turn,
      full G 90 degree wing over and turn into the bogie. If you loose sight
      of the bogie try using the padlock view (P Key) to see where the enemy
      is.
