Not so. Don't know about MS intentions, but you can easily get rid of all the virtual cockpit parts so that all external views do not show any of the interior. Simply remove this line that says Interior=... & just leave the line that says normal=..... in the model.cfg file.
Just try it for whatever aircraft you are using & voila, no more interior getting in the way of your exterior views. Just add // in front of Interior=... so that it looks like //Interior=....

Henry,
I installed a second PCI video card in my new system but FSX refused to load. At the startup screen it reported that the video card "didn't support Shader 2" (or something like that). The PCI card worked fine in FS9 but FSX obviously has more system checks to ensure adequate operation. I replaced it with a cheap 8500 card and it worked fine. In your case, remove the second PCI card and see if FSX starts up OK.
Ken.

Commenting this line out is only part of the equation. Have you used the panel.cfg file supplied by PM with only the Views section (see NOTAMS section)? And also, make sure you use the 2D view by hitting F9 (you may also need to hit the W key, but I don't think this is necessary). I know this works because it works for me.
Could be I forgot something, but the above should do it.

Hi Maurice,
I finally got it to work, partcially.
Don't know why, but I needed to re-start FSX for the change to be identified. Just changing selecting a different aircraft with FSX still running would not work.
So, with the default FSX A321, commenting out the interior= line removed all instrument panels and interior views.
How for the other problem. I also tried with a freeware download aircraft. I commented out the interior=, but panels and interior views are still visible. This is after the FSX restart. I have emailed the author asking if he knows why panels are still visible after //interior=.
Thanks!

This is based on the fact that the default aircraft in FSX each have 2 models. An exterior and an interior. You can disable the interior model and its supposed to give you an invisible plane from the inside but leave the outside so you can still see it from spot view but it never worked quite right. The entire plane becomes invisible for some reason even to a spot plane.
The easiest way to do this is to change the filename extension on the model file. Change 'interior.mdl' to 'interior.mdl.bak' Then start FSX. This works awesome unless you want to look at your plane flying from outside.God's in command, I'm just the Pilot.
