No.

No.
Both of these fit the clue, so they count. However, they aren't the title I had in mind, which is another text adventure. You're very close, though.

Yes (though strictly the title is Flight Simulation).

That's a great idea. I'll try to knock something together (using Spectrum examples).

I'll do more non-cryptic ones, too.
