In the film viewer (stand-alone app.) a list of all players in icon view will appear when you start a film. Just double click a name and you will be in their cockpit. Then use views as you would watching your own flight.

I like to use f4 at full zoom out with trails enabled. Then use keypad numbers to switch view. Makes it much easier for me to see those maneuvers that keep sending me back to the tower. :D

Thanks guys,
I just assumed that it was the film viewer was the same one in AH start up.

Only problem now is that it crashes (illeagal operation) as soon as I try to open it...

Should I re-download the 1.09 patch?

When i try to save film as AVI. there is no MPEG4 option as far as codecs to use.I have tryed all the ones that are in the avi options to save as and all i get is either a split screen or all blue looking crap.Anyway i can get MPEG4 codec into media player?Also i have another computer that does have the MPEG4 option and it works ok Sometimes-get blue screen o death usualy with it after sometime but i cant fly online with other puter "severe packet loss".So if anyone knows if and where i can get the MPEG4 codec i would be so Grateful.
