Nice Dave.

I was at PANC just this morning.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Nice colors. The only thing is that the last three images all use about the same view angle. Why not mix it up with different angles? Wink

Too set in my habits, I guess. Didn't notice 'til you mentioned. Things will change now that I have the ECZA software - look for some weird angles 'til I learn how to use it

Depends on the mode of transportation. Roll Eyes

Payware version of EZDok, but way better! I don't have it but I've seen videos with it...they're great!!! It even has a vibration affect when you land or takeoff!!! Shocked

Have barely turned a page in the instructions but it's a camera thing, allowing all kinds of fexibility in positioning the cameras and supposedly somewhat approaching the movement of trackIR - we'll see

If you check the FSX thread you'll read my first lament. The Flight 1 forums (simforums) has an EZDOK section so I posted on there. The Russian gent who designed the software is answering the questions so, with any luck, he'll have an answer

Bummer! Wouldn't it be nice if all hardware and software worked, correctly, the first time, and from then on, and was simple to install/use? Goes back to my theory that tech has moved too far too quickly without enough industry wide/worldwide standards. Think VHS vs. Beta or DVD vs. Blu-Ray. The simple analogy would be 'too many cooks'. I just wish it would all slow down for a while.

As one who just recently accepted the PC and all its inherent agonies, I couldn't agree more. Unfortunately we're a silent minority. This leapfrogging technology is extracting a ton of money from the bedazzled consumer and it makes you wonder. With any kind of luck, I'll miss the outcome

I don't know if you ever figured out in detail what it is patchs, but I'll explain anyway!

As olderndirt said, it is similar to Trackir, the difference is, It is not moved by your head, it is moved by buttons, You can save views and make short-cuts to them (1 goes to radio stack, 2 goes to dash, 3 goes to instrument panel), also, you can use the mouse to move around, use the arrow keys to walk (kind of), and lots of other stuff.
