Gents--a quickie question--what's the shotcut key to switch from 3D to 2D panels in FSX? If I start in 3D there's no way to switch back to 2D without going to the settings/aircraft tab and selecting 2D and restarting FSX...in FS9 I would simply hit the view button on my joystick and it went from 2D to 3D (VC) if there was one available.What am I missing?ThanksRake

Hi RakeAs usual the 'S' key switches between the primary Views, whereas 'A' switches between under-Categories.The answer is: Press 'A' - cotinuing to press A will bring you back to where you started.RegardsHenrik KorningBGGH

My instructions say to hit F10 for 2D and F9 for virtual.

Hi WvernoncI am at work right now. You are probably right that these keypresses works too.The 'A' way cycles through all Views in the paticularly 'S' category.RegardsHenrik

>What am I missing?Reading the instructions... :+ Opening the Learning Center, using the index, finding the answer: 4 minutes...Opening a browser, logging onto to AVSIM, asking a question, waiting for a CORRECT answer: 1 to 6 hours...Getting to point out the obvious: PRICELESS! :-beerchug

Opening the kneeboard and reading the key section only took a minute also. :)

Try a right mouse click anywhere on your VC. You'll get a full menu of view options.Mike.
