I have found some utilities on the web that allow you to save your camera
positions by "flying" around, etc., but I haven't really found this useful
for LDraw (YET).
Also, I might make a post to the FST newsgroup to see if their flight
simulator can output a flight path to a text file. This way, you could get
real weather effects and a flight model, too. Hummmm...
Something to think about.
