The historical accuracy is a nice touch, but unfortunately the game will likely turn off the fans that aims to attract (historical sim buffs) with unbalanced controls and weak missions and a tepid presentation.

The flight-sim world craves a good Vietnam-era helicopter sim, but Whirlwind Over Vietnam's anemic content would've been more suitable for a good demo than a full game.
