I can ask this differently. What sets the height above the runway of the hud-ladder target spot (wrt the 3D model view) --- ie the center spot? For c310-yasim and c172-larcsim, it's above the runway. For UIUC models, it's below the runway (a recent change). Thanks! >************************************************** > Prof. Michael S.
