Spent sooooo many hours as a kid playing Wing Commander: Prophecy. I still have dreams about the missions and the video cut scenes. Picked it up on GOG about a year ago and the controls sceme was still in my muscle memory.

Thank you kind internet stranger. It all worked out. The important thing at the end of the day is I made it. Money comes and money goes, being there to support my loved ones is all that matters right now.

Can confirm. Had to buy an over priced ticket cause I needed to get to my father in laws funeral and Southwest was the only operational airline
