Hi this may sound like a odd question. Is there a way that I could have my computer fly the  aircraft that I'm in   like if it were an AI aircraft? Sometimes when I'm flying I like to just sit back at times and look out the windows. I always look out my left window as soon as I'm ready to lift off the runway and start climbing. It looks like the real thing. However when I land I can't be looking out the side window and line the plane up with the runway at the same time. I always found it cool when I'm on a real flight and see everything start whiz by when the plane is only 20 or 30 feet above the runway and ready to touch down. I realize that FS2002 is designed for pilots rather than passengers. However, there are sometimes when sitting in a flight as a passenger can be relaxing after a long day at work. I did see a virtual pilot program on this site  but it looks like it  only responds  to the pilot's commands. I saw a similar software package at my local Radio Shack but it looked like the same thing. Plus I should check out the landing section of the flying lessons.

Thanks, TW

What you can do is complete your landing and park the plane...then you can do a instant replay and once the replay is playing you can switch views to whatever view you want.
Then just sit back and watch the flight... Grin

Or... you can turn the autopilot on, and for some real fun... let your six year old fly it, after that... you won't want to play passenger anymore!
