Hi,
I 've been flying the B 377 since its release and somehow I had completely forgotten about the A key (only used the S key) untill I rediscovered it by chance. I allows to cycle between left seat view, right seat view , engineer seat view , navigator seat view and a useful menu window. Very handy indeed. Just in case some of you are not aware of this powerful function.
Happy flying with the great B 377.

I've been using FSX for just under 3 years now...and I never knew that function existed

Huh!? How on earth did you manage your engines then?

I either switched views from the menu toolbar, or as of the past year/year and a half, I've been using TrackIR.

Just simply never knew the A key could switch views internally

Yup that little A key comes in handy for moving around. Sometimes its just nice to fly from co-pilots seat

True! I do it with the B-17 all the time. I think I'm correct in saying that many countries use the right hand seat in helicopters for the No.1 pilot. Perhaps A2A should do one, I wouldn't have to switch then

I assigned to of my yoke buttons for zooming in and zooming out , combined with the A key, it is very handy.

I, OTOH, have custom CameraDefinitions which I assign to "HotKeys"...those being
the #2 hat switch on my X-45 stick so a flick of my thumb puts me in the right seat,
FE station or Nav station or back to the left seat in the B-377.

I'm pretty certain that a "HotKey=" statement can be added to the default B-377 CameraDefinitions
which are cycled with the "A" key to allow those to be selected with a spare hat switch or other
selectors.

I just don't care to use the keyboard any more than I have to so I have most everything mapped
to switches on my stick and dual throttle quads.
