The file at this link contains update to the preferences.xml and keyboard.xml for use with the pilot offset dialog. These are based on current cvs.
http://www.spiderbark.com/fgfs/pilotoffsetxmls.tar.gz The preferences.xml contains the following xml to provide default settings, in chase view. It also provides a place besides 0,0,0 for the "reset" button to go to: <!-- pilot view --> <view n="0"> <desc>pilot view</desc> </view> <!-- chase view --> <view n="1"> <desc>chase view</desc> <default> <pilot-offset> <heading-deg>180.0</heading-deg> <pitch-deg>0</pitch-deg> <radius-m>25</radius-m> </pilot-offset> </default> </view> The keyboard.xml includes bindings for C/c (changing pitch up down) and R/r changing radius. The keyboard bindings are good for quick changes of angle for doing things like taxiing off after landing (not that there's a 747 following you in :-)). Also I'm wondering if while in chase view the numeric keypad should bind to pilot-offset "heading" instead of goal-offset...since they do similar and in some ways conflicting things...while in chase view.
