Yes sir DMF, EAW uses snap views in their 3D cockpit.

The 2D cockpit only uses instant though.

I use snap views.
In Goons and Bombers I use F3 external to enjoy the scenery and look for nme.

Use my 8 way hat as expected but use an additional button under my pinkie for "UP".
This way I get all the "level" views and angle views (up/left, up/front etc) and "up" just by combining the hat and button with one hand

Nearly same setup as Thunder here, only that I have also set up the button(top right) as UP view, so that I can switch easily. (also have 2 separate for FW UP & BCK UP views)

99% of the Time Snap Views, 1% pan view (looking for GV/Buffs)

I use snap views for all in cockpit flying. I use pan view a lot in a bomber when viewing externaly.

I use snap views. I then have a 8-way hat and two buttons by the other hand (up and down) so I can easily combine my view into any of the 27 possible.

Snap views.

Feels more natural, and it's what 3D cockpits are for!

There are views in AH?

What do you mean by "lean out" view? If you're talking about moving left or right, wouldn't you just use the "save head position" function?

Ditto Skernsk.

Almost exclusively snap views even when hunting. When in a bomber or GV I'll go external and pan.

I use all the views you listed. Why you might ask. Well they all have useful moments and they are easy to use in each situation in the game.

You just have to be very careful when you use padlock and check your tail. It is not a SA hinderance to me but rather a way to keep my hands on the stick and throttle and use my hat switch for snap views to help keep me in the fight and not dying as much.

I fly in zoom mode. Wish it had a default setting.
