Air France E170 into Paris.

My new upload. I hope you like it and thanks for checking it out !

The new elevation processing programs to flatten the NorCal airports were tested and appear to be working as I had hoped! Below is a sample from one of the newly flattened airports. This is necessary in order for the airports to not have ridges and bumps after processing through Laminar's creation tools. This is a huge advance in the technology to flatten the elevation within an airport area using automated tools, and will benefit both NorCal and all future scenery projects going forward. Below is a sample from KHES, Healdsburg Municipal Airport, north of San Francisco. I'll be testing this more extensively, as well as verifying all the airport ICAOs prior to running the final scripts. There have been some changes to a few airport identifiers over the course of this project's development, so this will get everything up-to-date as of 2013.

Cycle views has never been in X-Plane, but zoom in/out is. Simply go to the joystick settings, then click the 'Buttons: Adv' tab. Hit the button on your joystick you would like to assign something to, then hit the radio button that says 'general/'. You will then see various options for zoom. Can't say I've ever used a gamepad with X-Plane, but I can't think of any logical big reason why it wouldn't work unless the gamepad is registering as a button click in an awkward way. With a joystick hat switch the pan is very smooth. Sure you can. Press 'Q' or 'E' when in 2D, or use the arrow keys to pan sections of a large 2D panel if it's not all in view. That's a baffling statement. Are you using some old aircraft? Check out the new default planes like the Baron, Kingair, 747, etc to see what 3D cockpits look like. You can see other examples of images taken in 3D cockpit mode on our Saab project here: http://forums.x-pilot.com/topic/4189-saab-340a-cockpit-preview-december-10-2012/ You surely must be using an aircraft not intended to have a 3D cockpit then. You can certainly assign this type of stuff already using the button advanced section of the joystick. It's a matter of finding the datarefs you want to assign to buttons. Otherwise, just use the keyboard. Use '<' for moving backwards, '>' to move forward, use either with shift held down and this will produce faster movement. Do this in 3D cockpit mode (Shift 9) or in exterior (Shift 4) mode. Again, use 'q' or 'e' in the 3D cockpit mode to "walk" right or left. As said, already exists. Use 'q' or 'e'. It's a new platform for you and you're just going to need a little time to warm up to it. It's not unlike a lot else, and with flight sims you take what you can get.

Hi Carlos, opps, so sorry, my mistake Still, awesome looking aircraft!!! Slainte, Andy NZCH

Not exactly what I flew, but I really want to share this pic XD
