Doe's anyone know how to adjust the eye point in the 2D cockpit. It's easy in the Virtual cockpit but the 2D cockpit hmmmm. I hope I'm not being too thick here. Kind regards Peedy (Peter)

if you look at the aircrafts cfg file, you can adjust the camera positions, I haven't noticed one for the default left hand seat view

May the Mynd be with you.
So far my number of landings either passenger or pilot equal my number of takeoffs, but that is due to change

I don't think there is. I think that's one of the main reasons that the VC is favored. About the only thing to do is use the "W" key to drop down to the "mini panel" view and play with the Zoom.

If you mean moving the "eye point" view of the 2D panel, then the only way to accomplish that is to re-config the panel.
If you mean the "eye point" of the outside view over the panel, then it can still be fully adjusted in the Aircraft.cfg and the Panel.cfg for your aircraft.

Aircraft.cfg > [views]
eyepoint= 0.00,(front to back) 0.00,(left to right) 0.00,(seat height, up and down)

Panel.cfg > [views]
View_forward_dir= 0.00,(pan,up/down,lower#=higher pan)

Just be careful with major adjustments because you can find yourself flying from outside the plane when you switch back to 3D view.
