Or a full-on 3D version of your jitter code, where the pilot's head tilts to the side due to sudden side forces. :) This is actually something I want to try once the cockpit stuff stabilizes. The ability to bounce the viewpoint around (in turbulence, on touchdown) just too cool. In a 3D cockpit, you can actually watch the aircraft twist around you during yaw oscillations. The pilots head could lag changes in the aircraft orientation a little bit... Andy -- Andrew J.
