If you want 1st person cockpit? then you can press `Crtl-V` to get inside the cockpit - pretty bare
though it does get rid og the behind the ship look - the joystick support was never really the thing
they wanted to do but it may happen in a future patch if anough peopple warrant it and the game
lives upto the hype ... Zol.
