### 1/5 — Not good

*2017-05-29, version 1.03*

I knew my negative review wouldn't be posted...

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2016-10-23, version 1.03*

I will tell you guys how to do levels 2,3,4. Fly at 87 feet and go to 90 knots. Then drop them. 3, you just go not too high above it, just enough for you to dive on him. 4 this was hard for people to figure out, just go up and down the cloud layer while the red box is highlighted on the ship, then you will accomplish your objective. Good luck and clear the skies WWII pilots

### 1/5 — Melvin

*2015-04-03, version 1.02*

Installed four times IP6, doesn't load.

### 1/5 — It doesn't even open

*2015-03-29, version 1.02*

You buy it and like another reviewer said it flashes on for 2 seconds if that and closes. Apple needs to delete this game and refund the money. I only gave it 1 star because I have to or the review won't post.

### 1/5 — Immediately kicks you out of game!

*2015-03-24, version 1.02*

Opens to the title screen for about two seconds then kicks you out never to let you play!  And I paid for this?!?!?!?!  Don't waste your $. Wish I could give it Zero stars!
