I have found the Ctrl-U very useful to jumping up in altitude. Beginners like this feature too. The current deal where the aircraft freezes on crashes is not so handy to me. Why not have some sort of realism feature that at one extreme does not freeze on crashes and allows for some sort of slew to altitude feature and then on the other extreme you've got to claw your way up and when you crash your done. >_______________________________________________ >Flightgear-devel mailing list >[EMAIL PROTECTED] >http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel ************************************************** Prof. Michael S.
