I was doing a flight where I set things up for night and started. I was in the default baron that has no instrument lights. So I changed aircraft and it plonked me down an an airfield somewhere interrupting my flight. I have changed aircraft in flight a few times, always forgetting that this would end my flight. Is there a way to change this behavior so I continue in the sky where I was?Thanks!

in Flight? no. Will always port you to ground. What you can choose is: Where to start (runway or ramp) and if you start cold and dark or with engines running.

Have a look on the upper right...You can change your aircraft, then set your altitude and speed in the upper right boxes and the position can be set by clicking and dragging the aircraft after you select it. Make sure you have enough altitude otherwise as you click and drag, you might hit a mountain.That's about as close as you can get to changing aircraft mid-flight and get to where your last position was.

Thanks Goran, thats pretty much what I do all the time and thats how I got up in the air flying along in the dark to find my plane didnt have instrument lights :) I thought I would ask and see if there was a way to not have to set up each time I try aircraft. I dont usually hop between them but as I am trying things out I am doing it a bit more frequently.

You could always throw a suggestion in Austins "suggestion box". He has listened to others before and added many features that were requested.No guarantee that he will do it for this, but it's worth a try.I'm sure others might find it useful when trying different aircraft.
