Well, until this day I have this vague notion in the back of my head that it will delete the contents rather than ejecting it whenever I do it. You still do? Interesting, since they've changed this a couple of years ago. Stefan Really, it doesn't even do that. All it does is tell the OS that the stuff's (deleted files) addresses, are now available to have "new" stuff written in that location. That is why there are programs that can go back and retrieve files that have supposedly been deleted. -- Jim in NC |

George,
The AI behaves just like the real world. Feels the same to me. The one time this is confusing is with a sim like MS FS, where nothing is really moving. -- Thomas Borchert (EDDH) |

Russian/Soviet AIs do the opposite - the horizon line is fixed and the little airplane moves. It must be very confusing for people who had to switch between "our" sort and "those" sort or back the other way. Maybe some of them did, but the AI in the YAK-52s that I have instructed in, had the horizon moving and the airplane fixed. They were different from the "average" AI however, in that the horizon ball was gimbled in an almost free fashion and had no stops that would cause a "flip" during loops and rolls. The downside of this arrangement was that the "blue" side was on the bottom when "staight and level" and when pitching-up, the horizon line on the ball moved up showing more of the Blue-On- The-Bottom.
