You're correct that the original arcade game is Choplifter. But what do you
mean by "never released games"? I was referring to a game I used to play a

This was much more like the original Choplifter arcade game. The
helicopter actually tilted around rather than the static chooper in
Airlift. Unfortunately I think it was one of those never released games,
like that excellent looking tornado game.
