I find it very fustrating that all these cool skins get added to the game and I don't really get to see them, being sat in the cockpit. Selecting the skin in the hangar doesn't really let you get a good look either. Indeed, I only really get to notice things if I am making an aces high movie.
Could we have a feature to allow us to get a close look at a skin? I was thinking of a hangar where we can select an aircraft, then the skin and then manipulate it, or walk around it, enabling us to switch skins but keep the viewing angle to compare them.
This would showcase the skinners art, allow players to better choose the skin the want to fly, and add an encouragement for people to have a go.
Besides I like flying a cool skin!

Until Hitech gives you this feature.
You can use F3 in the convergence selection app along with spawned offline on the runway.
-
You can use f3 mode online in any plane as long as it's still on the ground.

Shhhh, Floob just wants easy picks.

Sort of missing the point...

+1
I would like an easier way to select and look at skins while in the hangar.
-
It occured to me today that you could include a small text boss with a very short potted history of the aircraft that could be submitted with the skin for approval.
-
If you go to gun convergence and hit F8 then it will allow you to move your view to look at the plane better.
I don't think the history is entirely necessary, but as for the OP +1. I would still like to be able to look at the plane with full 360* freedom.
-
Not necessary, just an idea
-
Go in the convergence area press F8 then the number 4 to turn left then the number 8 on the numberpad to look down. This will at least let you take a look at one side of it. and only a/c with forward firing guns.

Being able to view skins properly in the hangar would be a nice feature to have I agree.
For the last year or so skin submissions have had the option of including a potted history of each skin, plus a thumbnail and a 1600 x 900 screenshot. The idea is that in the future these will be included in an updated skins page on HTC's website and that skinners will then be able to add histories and screenshots to their older skins as well.
