It's also worth doing this in conjunction with still having the 3D model. A lot of pilots who trained at left pattern airports have incredible trouble when they end up at a right pattern airport. This is because, for a lot of the time, you cannot actually see the runway ... the airframe is in the way. _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
