FS2004 Flyby view

Postby steveadams99 » Mon Jul 19, 2004 10:11 am

Can anyone remember a flyby view in Flight Unlimited whereby your aircraft approached and flew past a static camera?

Does anyone know if it is possible to replicate this functionality in FS2004 via an addon or whatever?

This was great for viewing planes as they moved though the air. The external "spot" view is ok, but sometimes makes your aircraft seem as though it is hanging in mid air, turning and rotating on the spot...

Hi Steveadams.

I know what you mean. I was a great fan of FUII. I know nothing of this though in Fs9. :((It would be nice though). ::)

The Tower View is as close as you can get to this in FS9 without lashing out some cash. Trust me if you've ever flown RC planes its easy (I hadn't and hit the tower a couple of times :-[)

Ozzy ;)
