The answer is in the "R"!

Like in "R / C"....And most would actually pay for it in the form of a R/C model simulator.... Problem here is that we do not have the chance to plug & play FLIGHT with a R/C controller...When I was reading accross the forum this morning I got into the "Stearman test?" thread and found something I wasn't really aware of... The use of the "R" keypress to keep your view at the spot you are in, probably after having left your aircraft.That way you can act like if you were controlling an R/C model - big scale in this case :-)... Probably flying the cockpitless models this way will not harm us so called "hardcore simmers" so bad... :-)Not meant to be a comparison but, the "new kid in town" AeroflyFS is exactly that - the FM engine of a great R/C simulator scalled for the big ones, but, with the chance to import your previous R/C models into the simulation and fly them from outside....Of course I know that FSX, XPlane, FlightGear,... can be used more or less the same way, but the perspective I get in FLIGHT by hitting "R" after jumping out of the cockpit is right on the spot!!!!;-)
