How do I change the view distance?

Featured Replies

In FS9 we had the menu "View Options", where we could change the viewing distance.Now in FSX, when I go to the spot view (F11 or via 'S'), the only way to get a bit more distance from the aircraft seems to be to zoom out. This is however very limited and produces a wide-angle view I don't always want.I'm probably overlooking something, but how can I set the viewing distance to for instance 300ft as was possible in FS9?

Ctrl and the '+' key or '-' key increase/decrease the distance. + or - on their own, just zoom

This doesn't work in spot view for me, only in cockpit view. :( I would like to have it for spot view. Any hint?

There are two different kinds of spot view. It works with the locked spot view
