On some aircraft, ( 3rd party downloads,  military) I notice the actual aircraft can be as it would be in the "spot" view mode in front of the cockpit,( Through the screens) is there a way to elliminate this problem, its a pity to spoil the hard work of these folks who put in a lot of effort and time to make the working systems only to be spoilt by the outside view being spoilt.TIA for any and all replies

Not sure what you mean Ken. Can you give an example of an aircraft this happens with. A screenshot showing the problem would help.

OK will do a screenshot and post it next time it occurs, Just a point of clarification Captain, the aircraft  can be seen through the cockpit windows and responds pro-rata to joystick "movements", I will make note of the 2 or 3 downloads wherebye this happens along with a SS, cheers

Please see my last reply. Try Shift + 1.

anyway, I got 2 screen shots and have done the attachement " thing" but when I hit "post" nothing happens, what am I missing ???

The shots must be in JPEG format & meet the forum requirements. Upload them via the "Upload Images" link on the menu bar at the top of the forum.

No.

just a thought, some planes are presented without a 2D panel so when you want to go in "cockpit" view you find yourself looking at the open space.
