Model Cockpit View is a FlightGear addon that allows to switch the view from any AI/MP models and cockpits. It is based on the previous modules model-view.xml, cockpit-view.xml and model2-view.xml. Q/q steps through the available MP/AI aircraft.
Issues
Currently the cockpit views starts at (0,0,0) which is a bit of a usability problem - it works for someone that knows it is a bit of a hack but looks bad for anyone else. The Q/q key binding might interfere with aircrafts that use these keys.
Status
AndersG created a version of the addon ([1]) that is available in http://www.gidenstam.org/FlightGear/misc/ModelCockpitView-addon.tar.gz.
wkitty42 is working on the addon. ([2])
Changing the view point
By default, the view point will be at (0,0,0), so the view point will be exactly on the bottom for many models. Though this might be useful for analysis purposes, a raised view point is more interesting. The view point can be changed by adding the following code to the addons main.nas file:
