There are fewer bugs than in modern releases, and it has some interesting little quirks, like a sandbox approach to completing objectives and a very realistic difficulty (fly an Apache over Russian soil right now and find out).
Difficulty

3 of 45 sampled reviews raised it
If you enjoy flight simulators, or tactical/combat simulators in general, Echelon offers a level of realistic difficulty that hasn't been revisited by video games since - I'm not bluffing, I have a few hundred hours on Elite Dangerous (with comparable playtime in Elite and Frontier Elite to boot) - Echelon still catches my feeble mind off guard.
