Default views/settings problem

Featured Replies

Hello. Can someone help - I've searched the FS2002 Help files - and Google - in vain: Suddenly, seemingly of their own accord, my default view settings upon starting a flight have changed - this morning flights opened, as usual, with cockpit view and with parking brakes on. Now all flights open:1. in virtual cockpit view - I'd like straight cockpit view back2. with a small resizable aerial view window open in the top-left hand corner, which I now have to close each time with the square bracket key3. - VERY frustratingly - with the parking brakes off and the throttle up so that planes move forward before I can shut off the throttle or apply the brakes. I have checked the joystick settings (MS Sidewinder precision 2) and they are fine.I did nothing to change my default settings so am at a loss to know why this has happened (oh, I lost my default opening flight too, which I had to reset). How do I get back to my original default settings (view settings when opening flights - changing or resetting things in the display options panels, hardware, aircraft etc., doesn't help). Most importantly, how do I get flights to open as before with parking brakes on and with throttle fully closed, so that all my planes don't immediately lurch forward and crash into the gate every time I start a flight?!Many thanks.Martin Stebbing
