Turbulence

Description

It’s August 1981 in the midst of the Air Traffic Controller Strike. President Reagan has just ordered all controllers back to work. You determined to keep your job, have returned – only to find the situation is even more turbulent then before: more planes, less controllers, and high competition.
But that doesn't faze you, because you are an AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLER.

In this turbulent game you control 7 planes, of which 5 must reach your landing strip to win! You have three actions each turn with which you may: Take-Off, Move across one Air Current, Rotate, or Swap
Seems simple right? Not exactly. Rotating and Swapping can only be done if your planes are touching the tiles so the more planes you have on the board, the more power you have. In the mean time your opponent will be trying to get their planes in and pushing or crashing (yes you can collide into other planes) to prevent you from getting there first! You'll be swapping, pushing, rotating, crashing, landing, taking-off, and triple pushing in this game of TURBULENCE.
