Is it any good?

Thanks,

It was great on PS3 and I've heard it is quite good on PC too.

I think that's an internet spin off of Birds of Prey (IL-2) for the PS3 and 360: http://www.il2game.com/
I don't know, it looks eerily similar  Undecided

It is the Windows ported version of that game. They look similar because they are pretty much the same game throughout.

Time limits in simulation mode, non existant dev forum presence. customer questions go unanswered by the devs.

In short you're better off getting a copy of IL-2, which costs very little these days, and was made for PC.

I just downloaded the demo and I am rather impressed.  It ran quite smooth on my somewhat older computer and it's quite fun.  Thumbs up from me too.  Give it a try:  http://www.gamershell.com/download_54548.shtml

I got it during the STEAM sale for 24 bucks and have not even started it up yet. So much to play and too little time.
