Idea for ailerons,elevators etc.

Wouldn't it be nice if after pressing the arrow/numpad key(s) to control the plane the ailerons/elevators/rudder position would reset to zero like a joystick? I know you can just press 5 but it would be nice... not all of us can transport a laptop+joystick. Please try to implement this feature Microsoft!

Yah.

I remember a really old game on a really old computer.  The game was called 'Chocks Away'.  Probably, the very first, 3D flight simulator (more like combat FS tho).

In those days, there were no joysticks really, but you could use the keyboard.  Like video games nowadays, when u pressed up, the plane would tip forward, and the moment u realeased up, the plane stopped tipping.  Same 4 the ailerons.  Too bad that game didn't hav rudder control. :(

Still a great game tho! ;D
