Just a little tweak for those that feel a bit limited with the current camera views. There is a view disabled by default called "Screenshot View." In this view, the user can click and hold down their mouse's scroll wheel to slide the camera view around in the exterior view. (you can already do this in the cockpit view by default)

To enable "Screenshot View," do the following:

1. Go to C:\Users\"Your account username"\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Flight
2. Open the Cameras.cfg file in notepad.
3. Scroll down to [CameraDefinition.013]
4. Near the bottom of the [CameraDefinition.013] entry, you will see "CycleHidden=Yes." On the left side of the word cycle, add two forward slashes. ( // )

It should look like this when you are done:

[CameraDefinition.013]
Title = $Screenshot View
Guid = {D225B9D0-95CB-4278-9A9D-ED4545743269}
Description = Enables camera displacement outside the aircraft for taking screenshots
Origin = Center
MomentumEffect = No
SnapPbhAdjust = Swivel
SnapPbhReturn = False
PanPbhAdjust = Swivel
PanPbhReturn = False
Track = None
ShowAxis = No
AllowZoom = TRUE
InitialZoom = 0.6
SmoothZoomTime = 2.0
ZoomPanScalar = 1.0
ShowWeather = Yes
XyzAdjust = TRUE
ShowLensFlare=FALSE
Category = Outside
PitchPanRate=30
HeadingPanRate=75
PanAcceleratorTime=0
ClipMode = Spot
UseSimVelocity = TRUE
//CycleHidden=Yes
XYZRate=5.0

Although Remote Control view is not in the 'view cycle' it is already available using the R key.
 

At that time [1909] the chief engineer was almost always the chief test pilot as well. That had the fortunate result of eliminating poor engineering early in aviation.          Igor Sikorsky
