..so, I can drop the above in @ line no 465 between
"FGViewerRPH *pilot_view =" @ line no 448 and
"FGVieverLookAt *chase_view =" @ line no 466,
to have a "cockpit view"-"tower view"-"chase view" 3 state toggle?
..would I need changes like these below around line nos 1471-1475 in
main.cxx?
..like "FGViewerLookAt *tower_view = new FGViewerLookAt;
globals->get_viewmangr()->add_view( tower_view );"
...at line no 1473 to decide the toggle state sequence above?
..how about line nos 692-693, which does not mention "chase" view,
only "pilot_view" (from the cockpit)??? "Standing on the field",
"tower_view" is more different from "chase" than pilot_view"???

Scenarios always come in sets of three:
best case, worst case, and just in case.
