That sounds fine.  We might want to use this as a replacement for the 4th
view.  The 4th view is a tower view that doesn't track the FDM location as the
3rd view does; that is, you can look around the airport with the mouse. 
Mostly that was something I threw in there as both a test and demonstration of
the flexibility of the viewer config.   I don't actually use it myself, and
I'm not sure if anyone does.

Just as an aside, it looks like there is a bug in the existing chase view. 
Haven't had a chance to nail it down,  but the gist is the view angle seems to
be affected by yaw if the view angle is not centered on the vertical axis to
begin with (not in sensible controlled way, mind you).  My plan is to put
together and post a list of bugs that seem to have cropped up since the last
release (maybe earlier) just to see if anyone knows what they might have
changed to cause them.

Best,

Jim
