This is a C64/Atari dual release. The Atari version is on the flip side of the disks.
The main files have to be loaded to Basic start with e.g.

Additional Information
Note from the Lemon 64 forum:
When Professional Software launched their Soft Fleet series for the C64 it included Fleet Writer 1, Fleet Writer 2, Fleet Writer 3, Fleet Speller, and Fleet Filer. If they bundled parts of it together, then they named it Fleet System. Fleet System 2 consisted of Fleet Writer 3 and Fleet Speller. Fleet System 3 was the same as Fleet System 2 but included Fleet Filer. I am trying to fill in some blanks in regards to the various Soft Fleet User's Guides put out by Professional Software, Inc (PSI). This is what I have to date. Any comments, questions, or criticism welcomed. 1. Professional Software, Inc. Fleet Writer 3 User’s Guide. June 1984. ©1984 Professional Software, Inc. Used with Fleet Writer 3 and Fleet System 2 (64). If this manual came with Fleet System 2, then it would also include a 17 page User’s Guide for Spell Checker. 2. Professional Software, Inc. Fleet System 2 User’s Guide. April 1985. ©1984 Professional Software, Inc. The spell check chapter mentions a 75,000 word dictionary. Used in Fleet System 2 (64). 3. Professional Software, Inc. Fleet System 2 User’s Guide. November 1985. ©1985 Professional Software, Inc. The spell check chapter mentions a 75,000 word dictionary.

Used in Fleet System 2 (64), Fleet System 2 (64/128/Atari), and Fleet System 3 (128). If this manual came in the Fleet System 3 box, then it would also include a Fleet System 3 Addendum to explain the thesaurus. 4. Professional Software, Inc. Fleet System User’s Guide: For Use with Fleet System 2 and Fleet System 3. February 1986. ©1986 PSI. The spell check chapter mentions a 90,000 word dictionary. Includes an Atari appendix.
