Walking around our planes and seeing the country sides

Man, it would sure be nice to be able to walk around our planes, like a pre-flight, and also to land in a field and walk around. Imagine being able to land a bush plane in a field, or on a mountain, get out and look around... Imagine buying a new plane, and booting up in the sim, and being able to get out and walk around the new plane, human level, and check it out. It would be fantastic. I have wanted to do this with scenery so bad. Some amazing area's. The homes are so nice..... Please add on a walking mode to MSFS. :)

We had an addon back in the FS2002 and FS2004 days. It was a bit buggy. They have this in Prepar3D V4, and it was brilliant. (I havent been back since MSFS came out). I really think this would enhance your amazing simulator.


Kind regards,

Bill, you can already do this with the remote camera - either using the keyboard or, better still, plugging-in a USB game controller and programming the buttons/controls as you wish through MSFS's Options menu.

OK, it's not walking around, but it can give you much more freedom of movement than that in the simulator.

What Cager said. Also this doesn't really seem like a SDK related suggestion so not the right place to suggest this either.
