Hmmm. Not sure if your Airtruk would be fast enough to actually collide with it but I see what you mean, - it would be a potentially trouser-soiling sight blink.gif . Nice to learn that Aitruks have instruments.

It didn't occur to me that this shot was spooky but I can see that now. I just thought it looked beautiful but I'm funny like that. It does look a bit ghostly, - actually it's true that there's nobody inside it...

An AirTruk looks like the aftermath of a midair.

The shot in the link below shows the general cockpit layout of the Airtruck, - I believe there might be some instruments on an overhead panel rolleyes.gif .

The restricted forward vision would make spotting other traffic a challenge, so Splitpin, you probably don't need to worry about seeing something like the Boeing.

Olderndirt, - did you see my response to your post in the aircraft section about pepping up your CS 727? Works a treat for me.

This struck me as really humorous. Learn other skills while you're on auto pilot.

Open the appropriate Acft.cfg file (back it up on desktop just in case). Scroll about two thirds down and find the section [Turbine Engine Data]. About halfway down that is the line 'static thrust=15500'. Change that to 25500 or more. Be sure to click 'YES' when asked at exit.
