Easy question I'm sure. Only two days in AH . Is there a difference between F1 and "Shift" F1. It appears from the "quick Reference" guide that they should allow different views. I get the same view when I use either one.

For the 3 "field of Views" in Aces High you toggle them as follows:
SHIFT F1 = Full Range View
SHIFT F2 = Medium Range View
SHIFT F3 = Short Range View ( or Combat View )
now when in the tower, you can step outside of the tower by pressing the F5 key........to get back in the tower press F1 key
to get the outside view when flying Bombers, or flying only in the TA or DA arenas you can use the F3 view, press F1 view to get back to the cockpit view
also in the Main Arenas and the AvsA arena.you can use F3 view in all planes/gv's/boats gunner positions while on the ground before and after take off.
F1 = cockpit view or inside the tower
F3 = outside of plane or outside view ( only works for bombers & gunner positions in main arenas when airborne ) works for all planes/positions when on the ground
F5= outside view ( or is how to get into CMEYE mode to check out the terrian, etc........ do a search for CMEYE mode, to find more indepth information )
hope this helps
