I'd like to try to change a couple of start-up settings in CFS2, so I can have
friends be able to play without me having to be right there to:
1. Move the camera around behind the plane, so you can see forward
2. Set the trim tabs to a specific value
3. Drop the panel from the cockpit view

They already have enough trouble from me always yelling "PULL UP!! PULL UP!!!

I suspect the settings are in the .air file- AirEd shows a lot of "unknown"
values there.

Too bad there's no "save" function, as in the civilian sim

It's no problem for myself-- as I mentioned, it's for friends to be able to play without me having to be right there to get the view set,trim adjusted,etc...In FlightSim 2002 the initial starting conditions can be adjusted, and then saved.Then,when someone besides me sits down to play, everything is already set: The plane shows up on the runway with the view set, the trim already adjusted for that aircraft,and the panel dropped from the cockpit view--so they can just open the throttle and go...I'm just asking if anyone knows whether those things can be set in cfs 2, maybe in one of the config files...
