Fun but controls don't hold up.

This game is actually a lot of fun. The missions and aircraft are quite varied. Using the Nunchuck control scheme is simple and fun. (Take the suggestions of others and hold the Nunchuck in your right hand). If you use the target following camera (button A) it really gives the game a cinematic feel.
The control scheme is also a big con. If you attempt a sharp turn the Nunchuck often looses positional awareness and the plane gets stuck and you can't easily level out. You actually end up twisting your arm all over the place and can end up crashing if low to the ground. The other problem is that the long distance viewing of targets is hard to see and thus can cause eye strain.
Overall the game is fun and is absolutely worth renting. I'm sure there will be better flight sims out that were meant specifically for Wii, rather than a port.
