November 15, 20178 yr Hi Keven, Just throwing out a thought - what about interactive checklists as a new feature of ChasePlane ? Happened to be watching a video review on Goran's beautiful XP Saab last night - which the developer appears to have included just that... It seems like a perfect meld with ChasePlane's current niche for the FSX/P3D crowd - for both custom ones created by users - or canned ones provided by the developer during initial distribution... As you select each item on the checklist the camera automatically slews to the correct view - with a zoom close enough to actually read the labeling... It would GREATLY speed the learning curve associated with new complex aircraft... Anyway - just my two cents - take it for what it's worth... Example: Interactive Check Lists Regards, Scott

November 15, 20178 yr Exactly the same here @Woozie just before I read the post I was thinking '...tut! checklists?! in a bloody camera app?! what a load of boll......OH MY GOD YES I NEED THIS IMMEDIATELY' Neil Andrews. Fight or Flight - YouTube | Twitter

To be frankly, I never used any community presets for my planes as i think camera settings are quite a personal preference, but being able to download checklists created by the community for all those addon planes out there would be brilliant. I'm sure @Keven Menard is already working on that for the next beta release
November 15, 20178 yr Author Hi Folks, Hah - you guys are funny... Yeah ditto on the sharing - never used anyone else's camera settings - I would be looking for well made checklists... Regards, Scott
November 16, 20178 yr I am seriously thinking of buying CP. I have read a lot of favorable comments. If you were looking for another example of interactive checklists the Aerosoft Twin Otter Extended has them. They also zoom in to the area on the panel where the checklist item is located. It is a great learning tool.
