Pilotwings is a flight simulator. It's one of the well-known games, along with F-Zero, that used Mode 7 graphics to create a 3D effect without true 3D.
Gameplay
Pilotwings consists of a series of training areas. In each training area, the player must complete several objectives, which usually requires the player to fly through a series of rings. After each objective is completed, the player's total score is tallied. If it's high enough, the player passes.
After passing four training areas, the player gets to play a bonus mission in an attack helicopter. If they beat this level, the player enters Pilotwings EXPERT. Pilotwings EXPERT also has four training areas and a helicopter level; however, the score requirements are higher and the weather conditions are harsher.
The main vehicles the player gets to pilot are the Light Plane, Rocket Belt, Hang Glider, Helicopter, and Skydiving. If you land on a moving platform, you also play a bonus game featuring a penguin, a guy on a trampoline, and a birdman.
