chris evans gives us some excellent aircraft but I wonder why he never includes wing views ??

It's ridiculously easy to add your own views to any aircraft. Open the aircraft cfg. file of an aircraft with acceptable views. The section you want will look like this:

[Views]
eyepoint= -6.8, 0, 3.1

[CameraDefinition.0]
Title = "Front View"

Copy this text from your donor aircraft cfg. Then delete the views section from the aircraft cfg. file of the aircraft you want to add new views to and paste the ones you copied in their place.

Be sure to make back ups of your cfg. files before you go tinkerin' with 'em. It could save you a lot of frustration later
