Hi all,In FS2002 I used to be able to up and down (SHIFT+RNTER)the pilot view, foward loking and all lateral views.How can I do this on FS2004? It appears I van only up or down the view on the foward looking view.Thanks, Firmo

Hi Milton,Thanks for te response but I want to do this using the keyboard like I used to do in FS2002.It looks like this is one more feature that (for some reason) was unfeatured from FS2004. Very usefull too if you like to taxy to and from gates using taxi markings.Thanks, Firmo

I discovered that when I use the arrow keys up and down that it changed the veiwpoint. Like you, I tried the old 2002 keyboard method and it did nothing.
