MD 11 with Wing Views?

[Guest woottsbj25]

I agreee with most here.PMDG say that the wing view takes up for too much performance when coupled with the VC. And that's fair enough. But why do you have to couple it with the VC? Why not have a choice between the wing view and the VC? At least then the user has the choice. It cannot be that difficult to implement it.Not naming any names, but many, many add-on developers have managed to introduce a simple choice as to whether the aircraft has a VC and wing view, just a VC, just a wing or nothing at all, depending on your preference. I don't see, with the obvious quality and level of competency that we have seen from PMDG, that PMDG can't also do this. Heck, with the 747-400, we didn't even get a choice whether to have the VC or not!Don't get me wrong - I love the 747-400, but I just feel when I'm flying it that there is just something missing - and that is most definitley the wing view. I never, ever fly, even go into, the VC. I went into it a couple of times at the very beginning, because it was nice to see the folders tip over and the tray come out. But that's it.I think a good way of you deciding whether to implement this would be to have a poll - how many people don't want a wing view at all, how many want one with the VC at all times, and how many people want one, but with a choice as to whether to include it in the model or not. I think you would be surprised at the results.Seriouly guys, I think I've put up a valid argument here. At least give us the option as to what we want.That's my rant for today :)

I'd be willing to donate towards the production of the update for it or watever, thats how much i want wing views lol. Same with the MD-11.The poll probably will be one sided but i suppose the PMDG team have got to try and add these wing views onto an already complex aircraft. I hope they will do it though for the MD-11 and the 747.
