Is it just me, or is the FSX King Air a tad hard to control on the ground? I find it to be way to fast on the taxi and hard to keep at a slow pace for ground movements. That and requires a lot of power to get moving... Nothing like other similar twins lik...

I used to love being able to track around my plane in FS 2004 with the chase plane view mode. Now the default view is from the right wingtip and pans back and forth from a fixed point. Blech! Please tell me there's a way to make the camera track like it d...

Hello fellow simmers - It's been so long (memory lag also) but I have forgotten how to change the camera defaults - as if in view mode, tail looks too long - looked at fsx hotkeys and for the life of me, can't find it. Know there was a thread last year ...
