AI aicraft "flying text"

[alniko]

Anyone figure out how to get rid of the "flying text" above all AI aircraft? I really don't like the red text flying above the planes when flying. It's annoying and not very REAL.

Thanks guys I found the answer. I did search everywhere for this data. Guess what? It's listed in FS2K2 COMMAND assignments but it starts with the word "ALL" , I forgot how it read completely. Who would think you look for the word label on a line starting with ALL? Some or most of the topics are that way throughout the assignments. I would have listed it as
"Labels, all aircraft ON/OFF"

You can turn LABELS On and OFF using CTRL SHIFT L.

I also found it usefull to use if you can turn it off when you want to. I just finnished programming my Saitek X-45 HOTAS joystick. I added several chase views and you can see who they are with the labels ON above the a/c, I guess it can be used with the ATC. So you not only hear the a/c ATC with the tower but now with Labels, maybe you can see the plane referenced by them when using one of the chase windows.

For X-45 users, I up;oaded my 2K2 SGE Profile today. I included a bunch of nice goodies and most of the buttons are programmed in MODE 1 with most pinkie combo's also. The rotaries turned out fantastic (very smooth) for ELEV TRIM and LEFT RIGHT brake that really works ... both are variable speed commands. Also included 2D and 3D inside or outside PANNING. Also non hold hat button LOOK views. That X-45 joystick with my profile sure makes flying smooooooooooth and a joy to sim fly. The X-45 is like driving a caddie compared to my old but trusty analog X-36, VW by comparison, at best.

Thanks for the inputs, I guess you have to read all the command words to find what you are looking for when using any BG sim.
