Martin-Have you checked out these?

I use there 3D system and am quite pleased with it.
Using addon scenery and gliders in FS2k2, I self-launch
and ridge soar at Torrey Pines for a quick flight.
The virtual cockpit in 3D is very good in the ASW28.
I agree that there is still a long ways to go-and
I miss the periphael vision.


Very interesting and no, I hadn't seen them.

Have you got both the head movement sensor and the glasses? If so,
does it give a smooth scroll or jump as though the coolie hat has been
flicked? I'm guessing that it does the latter from the website
description.

Being picky, I'd want at least 300 degree horizontal smooth scrolling
and 270 degree vertical scrolling combined with the ability to scroll
as fast as I can move my head before I'd be happy. Oh yeah, and it
would need some work in the sim too, to stop it leaving the panel
always in view when you look round - unlike some (earlier?) versions
of MSFS.
