Plane spotting ?

Featured Replies

Myself as well as many others have been spending a great deal of time watching the fruits of our labour, taxi, takeoff and land at our favorite airports. It really is fun. :-)It would be cool if it were possible to visually scan the airport in either direction from tower view. If it is, I'm not aware of a good way of doing it ?Some sort of plane spotting utility would be great !!SteveCYYZ

Steve,do a search here in the file library for a file called "viewpoint"it is like you're on a pretty high tower and you can pan around wherever you want.you can also listen to the traffic,as you have a commradio on the towerI use it all the time for plane spottingregards,Seba

Hey SebaThanks for the tip !It has definately made plane spotting easier. I have found so far that it's more manouverable in slew mode but unfortunately I can only see the atc instead of hear it. Thanks of coarse also go out to the author Dirk Farin. :-)SteveCYYZ
