OK...I'm board and I don't wanna fly WB
« on: August 04, 1999, 03:46:00 PM »
Man 4 post today I really am board, HT and Pyro gotta get this thing out  

This is a "I wish they would let me..."  One of the things I'd like to do is take screen shots of airfield ops.  Nice shots of a large bomber formation on the apron, recovery operations on the carrier etc.  The problem with WB is that the angles available make for mostly poor shots from the external view of the contol towers.

Could it be possible to allow us to move around the field when not in an A/C?  Would make for some great screen shots.

it would be cool to be able to stand where the LSO would be on a CV and watch landings!

Hello,

Maybe a few more Alpha screenshots would help keep Sharky from getting the "shakes".

But I also have to agree with his suggestion about the viewing system.

Gtojon, I would suggest standing on the cat walk if you see me attempting to land on the same carrier, I've been know to take out half of the deck while trying to get a bird back down.
