To squeeze the simulator into the TRS-80 limited memory and display, subLOGIC saw it necessary to drop the instrument panel and reduce the resolution. The simulator was later ported to the TRS-80 Model I, which had only rudimentary graphics capability. Despite this, it ended up being one of the most popular Apple II applications of the early 1980s. A2FS1 Flight Simulator, their first product after forming subLOGIC, had black and white wireframe graphics, featured a very limited scenery consisting of 36 tiles (in a 6 by 6 pattern, which roughly equals a few hundred square kilometers), and provided a very basic simulation (with only one aircraft simulated).
