Is there a way to remove "Tower View" when I press change view key?(s)

[georgi55]

I searched the forum, and looked in tips library, but found no answer.
So, is it possible? What I want is, when I press "S", view chnages from Cockpit, to VC, to Spot,
and back to Cockpit withouht switching to Tower View.
I have realized that after switching to Spot view from Tower view textures become blurry.
(it happens like..let's say I'm at O'hare, and tower view is setted at Meigs.)
I know I can directrly change to Spot by rigth clicking but it stops the sim so I'm looking for other way to do it.
Thnaks in advance.

All the posts I've ever seen on this subject suggest that it can't be done - unless anyone else knows differently?

Thanks for letting me know. I hope someone finds a way to do it. I've been trying too but no luck so far.

Georgi,

Instead of just rotating through `s`, you can go backwards using `Shift-S` so you don't need to go through Tower view.

Also I have two buttons set up on the joystick for switching Forward and switching BACKWARD through the views, respectively.

Oh...That's right!
Thanks for reminding me that!:) It's the simplest way to avoid the Tower View and I've never used it! lol

I was going to pass that tip as well, until I saw Simon alerted you.

I also discovered CTRL+S "toggles" the top-down view, i.e., the first time puts you in top-down view, the second one takes you back to the cockpit view. I snooped around a little bit, but can't tell if this was documented or not. This along with the SHIFT+S helps me see my way around the airport a lot better. I've relied on the SHIFT+S for the spot view for quite some time - it seems it's about the only way I can taxi worth a hoot!

Georgi,

I have gotten so that I use only the mouse to select view. Simple right klick on current view and select new view from menu on screen.

I know the right click, and I've pointed it out in my initial post. It stops the sim for that moment and I don't like it that way.
Thnaks for posting though:)
