Turning a plane in the wanted direction in a mission

Hi all,

Would like to know if it's possible to turn your plane in the wanted direction in a downloaded mission. My E14Y1 Glen stands correct on the I-8 submarine, but to fly out it has to fly through the control-tower of the sub. So I would like to have the plane turned 180 degrees, so it can fly out as it should.

The mission sounds as this:

[mission]
version=2.0
title=%title_string%
summary=%summary_string%
objective=
intelligence=
mission_type=1
allegiance=4
total_goals=1
player_aircraft=3846
player_aircraft_name=%player_aircraft_name_string%
airfield=%airfield_string%
date=1/6/1943
time=12:00

[unit.0]
id=9078
type_id=3846
name=%name_string.0%
is_player_aircraft=1
allegiance=4
skill=1
payload=0

[formation.0]
id=6000
type=air
waypoint_path_id=5000
directive=1
players_formation=1
points=2
unit_id_position.0=9078,0,0.0,0.0,0.0

[waypoint_path.0]
id=5000
waypoint.0=2,1,S7* 59.88',E158* 24.51',+0,,,,0,,1000,0,1
waypoint.1=1,1,S7* 59.90',E158* 23.96',+531,,,,162,,0,0,1
waypoint.2=1,1,S7* 59.61',E158* 24.09',+531,,,,162,,0,0,1
waypoint.3=1,1,S7* 59.65',E158* 25.15',+531,,,,162,,0,0,1
waypoint.4=1,1,S8* 0.07',E158* 25.25',+531,,,,162,,0,0,1
waypoint.5=4,1,S7* 59.88',E158* 24.51',+0,,,,0,,1000,0,1

[unit.1]
id=1000
type_id=6072
name=%name_string.1%
heading=267
allegiance=4
skill=1
points=0

[formation.1]
id=6001
type=ground
waypoint_path_id=5002
directive=0
unit_id_position.0=1000,0,0.0,0.0,0.0

[waypoint_path.1]
id=5002
waypoint.0=1,1,S7* 59.88',E158* 24.51',+0,,,,15,,0
waypoint.1=1,1,S7* 59.92',E158* 23.91',+0,,,,15,,0
waypoint.2=1,1,S7* 59.93',E158* 23.37',+0,,,,15,,0

[unit_type.0]
type_id=3846
unit_family=1
name=E14Y1 Glen

[unit_type.1]
type_id=6072
unit_family=7
name=IJN_I-8

[strings]
"title_string"=Glen 2
"player_aircraft_name_string"=E14Y1 Glen
"airfield_string"=I-8 submarine
"name_string.0"=I-8

Would it be possible to change one or some of the above parameters so the plane is turned 180 degrees? Or are there other tricks?

Happy new year and lots of flightsim-pleasure to you all,

Hi all,

I discovered how to introduce a slew mode in CFS2, so I think I'll manage to get the plane round.
