Rowan were responsible for the Amiga and Atari port of
Falcon,
one of the first high - tech F-16 sims.

Flight of the Intruder
Operation Overlord was released in 1994 and was one of the very first flight sims to make use of the brand new S3 graphics chipset. This chipset enabled a doubling of the screen resolution from 300 x 200 pixels to an amazing 600 x 400 pixels. You could actually see the little fences around Radar sites! -
