I know......I was just thinking that......you know that commercial for that camera and printer combo, where the woman takes all the pictures of every possible angle at like a part......she goes home, prints them out on the advertised printer that comes with the camera and then puts a panoramic (yeah...that's the word I need) view of the park all around her room on the walls. Well, I was thinking of that and I thought......wouldn't it be cool if people could take pictures of anything with just about every single angle......and load it on their computer with just their digital camera (yes, you would probably have to use a diggy) and then they wouldn't have to make their flying site or whatever they were going to make.....

I think that would be cool......I hope you understand what I'm talking about......

Tell me what you think.....

This is probably not exactly what you're talking about but it might be close. Cool nonetheless.

yeah........that is something like waht i was talking about...........kinda like that panoramic view......If only I could get in touch with Great Planes, and tell them about it.....or something like that........

An email wouldnt hurt followed up by a written letter.

No, I guess that wouldn't really hurt just to tell them........because if they are in competition with AFP or Reflex, then, I think that if they heard about that, then they might take up the offer (and I might get some $$$ for the contribution - probably not though)..........You should see the pictures and things that Reflex and AFP has, they have the real pictures.....(if you haven't seen them aleady!!)

Yeah...pretty cool stuff! Havent ran the simulators though...just seen the ads. If I ever decide to try my hand at helicopters, then I would probably invest in a simulator.

BTW - in your signature...is that supposed to be yorkcountyflyers instead of yorkcountryflyers? I couldnt get it to come up under "yorkcountryflyers".

You should be able to use panoramic images with some of the simulators as the user is fixed in one position. You can take panoramic pictures using a sphere. I use panoramic images to light up 3D models I make. Here's a website that might help.

I'm in a rush so I might have got it all wrong.
