Notes

Really early, compiled well over a year before the Japanese retail version (unreleased internationally).
The Coconuts Japan logo animation isn't shown; it shows the "FunCom" screen, followed by the message "and JVC Musical Industries present" divided across 3 screens.
The intro sequence is very different, featuring a hangar scene not shown in retail. It also does not have the voice-over narration of text.
At the "Mission Deadly Skies" part of the intro (which is shortened here), the audio cuts off.
Different loading/title screen
Very different plane/character selection music and selection menu in general. Different portraits, etc.
Slower loading screen, and it has music.
The game simply features VS mode with another plane/character. There are no cut scenes before the gameplay begins.
Different music during gameplay
Miscellaneous Notes:
- Game is emulatable: Yes (as of April 17, 2021).
- Game contains dongle protection: No.
- Game contains debugging symbols: N/A
- Dump was originally scrambled: No
