Wide Angle View - Idea about peripheral vision issues

[¡Oracle!]

I have seen many comments made about people not being able to line up with the runway or other features in the environment in general because they can't see the ground.

Is there a way to expand the view to be wide-angle? This way there would be no need to zoom out and make the plane a dot in the sky, just so you can tell where it is in relation to your position.

Now, I have a great "feel" of where the plane is for the most part no matter what I'm doing, but whenever I need to get a precise fix on where the plane is, especially when lining up to land, it gets a little tougher. I think an adjustable wide angle view would go a long way in simulating peripheral vision.

I deeply agree, I think this and no wind are what is stopping me from spending the extra money on a radio that can be hooked up to the computer, because as far as learning orientation and flight dynamics the keyboard works just fine for me.

A $20 dual joystick will work much like a transmitter controller for a lot less money. Saitek 880 I think is one.
