  The aim is to destroy all of your opponents' planes.
Players use cards to attack, defend or out manoeuvre an opponent. Only a limited number of cards are available for each flight, so players may have to return to their own airfields to obtain further cards.
Planes can also be attacked from the ground by anti-aircraft guns and planes in flight can attack grounded planes. The victor of a dog fight becomes an Ace. These planes have a greater choice of cards to use in flight and improve their attack and defence capability.

Special rules apply for 3 or 4 players.
