As I have pointed out before, the correct terminology, the one used by the Space Shuttle astronauts (indeed, astronauts from the first manned Gemini mission in 1965 onward) is "Translation." I use the Left Control key to turn translation on. I find it helpful to execute a translate maneuver while engaged in a gunfight. Have fun & fly 'em high! -- Having fun at NARAM-37 should be easier than pronouncing "Geneseo". ======================================================================== John Viggiano, js...@rc.rit.edu or sjv...@ritvax.isc.rit.edu NAR 25615 I'm the NAR, and I vote!
