I know this sound like a newby question, but how can I get camera angles for Tim Conrads Saab J21?

Paste this in the aircraft cfg. (these are the views I use for every aircraft in my hangar).
If the aircraft cfg. already has this camera definition section delete it and replace with this.

[CameraDefinition.0]
Title = "Front View"
Guid = {0ae3f864-da10-4e5a-977c-b9bba47d6f7a}
Description = Front View
Origin = Center
SnapPbhAdjust = Swivel
SnapPbhReturn = FALSE
PanPbhAdjust = Swivel
PanPbhReturn = FALSE
Track = None
ShowAxis = FALSE
AllowZoom = TRUE
InitialZoom = 0.75
ShowWeather = Yes
InitialXyz = -4, 1, 43
InitialPbh = 5, 0, 180
XyzAdjust = TRUE
Category=Aircraft
MomentumEffect=TRUE
ClipMode=Minimum
xyzRate=5.0

[CameraDefinition.1]
Title = "Landing Gear"
Guid = {96873AAD-621B-4C45-8A58-DEF7B7FCB051}
Description = View of the landing gear and left wing flaps
Origin = Center
SnapPbhAdjust = Swivel
SnapPbhReturn = FALSE
PanPbhAdjust = Swivel
PanPbhReturn = FALSE
Track = None
ShowAxis = FALSE
AllowZoom = TRUE
InitialZoom = .58
ShowWeather = Yes
InitialXyz = -8.5, -4, -15
InitialPbh = 0, 0, 34
XyzAdjust = TRUE
Category=Aircraft
MomentumEffect=TRUE
ClipMode=Minimum
xyzRate=5.0

[CameraDefinition.2]
Title = "Tail"
Guid = {5c1df273-034b-4e7f-953a-9d5e26f1646c}
Description = Looking forward from behind the aircraft
Origin = Center
SnapPbhAdjust = Swivel
SnapPbhReturn = FALSE
PanPbhAdjust = Swivel
PanPbhReturn = FALSE
Track = None
ShowAxis = FALSE
AllowZoom = TRUE
InitialZoom = .60
ShowWeather = Yes
InitialXyz = -10, 0.0, -75.0
InitialPbh = 5, 0, 0
XyzAdjust = TRUE
Category=Aircraft
MomentumEffect=TRUE
ClipMode=Minimum
xyzRate=5.0

[CameraDefinition.3]
Title = "Right Wing"
Guid = {C690EAFD-223A-42d0-99E0-681ADF93BB59}
Description = View from the right wing tip looking at the cockpit
Origin = Center
SnapPbhAdjust = Swivel
SnapPbhReturn = FALSE
PanPbhAdjust = Swivel
PanPbhReturn = FALSE
Track = None
ShowAxis = FALSE
AllowZoom = TRUE
InitialZoom = 0.5
ShowWeather = Yes
InitialXyz = 41, -5, -14.0
InitialPbh = -6, 0, 281
XyzAdjust = TRUE
Category=Aircraft
MomentumEffect = FALSE
ClipMode=Minimum
xyzRate=5.0

[CameraDefinition.4]
Title = "Left Wing"
Guid = {f25dfa2e-fd2e-4b89-81e2-0575cbcb60de}
Description = View from the left wing tip looking at the cockpit
Origin = Center
SnapPbhAdjust = Swivel
SnapPbhReturn = FALSE
PanPbhAdjust = Swivel
PanPbhReturn = FALSE
Track = None
ShowAxis = FALSE
AllowZoom = TRUE
InitialZoom = 0.5
ShowWeather = Yes
;InitialXyz = -35, 0, 35
;InitialPbh = 0, 0, 140
InitialXyz = -38, -5, -14.0
InitialPbh = -6, 0, 80
XyzAdjust = TRUE
Category=Aircraft
MomentumEffect = No
ClipMode=Minimum
xyzRate=5.0


Notice the xyzRate? This addition allows the camera to be positioned 5 times faster than normal :dance:
