[Flightgear-users] pa28-161 pilot view possition

[Hal V. E. <hv...@as...>]

When flying the pa28-161 I noticed that the position of the pilot seemed to be 
too far toward the center of the aircraft.  So I did a little modification to 
correct it.  I changed a section of pa28-161-set.xml

from 

<!-- Set the pilot's view position -->

  <view n="0">
   <internal archive="y">true</internal>
   <config>
     <x-offset-m archive="y">-0.18</x-offset-m>
     <y-offset-m archive="y">0.5</y-offset-m>
     <z-offset-m archive="y">2.6</z-offset-m>
     <pitch-offset-deg>-15</pitch-offset-deg>
   </config>
  </view>

to 

<!-- Set the pilot's view position -->

  <view n="0">
   <internal archive="y">true</internal>
   <config>
     <x-offset-m archive="y">-0.235</x-offset-m>
     <y-offset-m archive="y">0.5</y-offset-m>
     <z-offset-m archive="y">2.6</z-offset-m>
     <pitch-offset-deg>-15</pitch-offset-deg>
   </config>
  </view>

to correct the problem.  With the change the pilot is now sitting centered on 
the yoke.    Perhaps someone who has access to CVS could make this change 
there.
