You will find a default cameras.cfg file in the FSX root folder.
Copy it to C:\Users\your name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX
and let it overwrite the one that's already there.
On most forums, I don't know about this one, typing in all upper case
is seen as shouting.
Nick, thanks for the input. That padding is still there. Not sure which way to go now. Like Joop, are we the only ones ?
