    Cannot return from outside view to cockpit view

    I am flying the Spitfire, and my problem is that once I switch to the external view hitting F2, I cannot return to cockpit view hitting F1.
    I double checked they are correctly mapped at the controls screen.
    Somebody told to use Crtl F2 or Alt F2 buy no way, I cannot get back to the cockpit view
    I doesnt happen at the original COD which I already have in use.
    Thanks for your help

    Re: Cannot return from outside view to cockpit view

    F1 and F2 are the defaults for cockpit and external views so not sure why F1 doesn’t get u back in the cockpit.
    Alt-F2 definitely won’t allow u back in. Are u flying in a multi player server or in a single player game ?
    U say u still have the original game in use. Is that a separate installation with a separate 1C Softclub folder somewhere?
    System specs:
    Gaming laptop: Metabox P750ZM, CPU Intel i7-4790K @ 4GHz, GTX 980m with 8Gb DDR5 VRAM, 16Gb Dual channel DDR3 RAM, 2 x Samsung EVO 840 500Gb SSDs, Win10 Home 64bit.

    Gaming PC: MSI PRO Z690 WIFI DDR5 mobo, Intel i5 12600KF cpu, 32Gb Corsair DDR5 5200Mhz RAM, Samsung 980 Pro 1 TB M2 SSD, Corsair 850w psu, MSI RTX 3070 8GB vram vid card, Windows 10 Home 64bit.

    I fly single player offline and my original COD remains at its own install

    From some strange reason, now F1 doesnt work at my original COD (it worked OK previously)
    COD Blitz is installed at: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\Common, where the original COD is also

    Try use Alt-F1 to return to cockpit.

    Check your Controls, Views settings.

    There are two items labeled 'External View', the top one is for external view where you sign the controls over to the AI, so basically you are leaving the aircraft.

    It is labeled incorrectly, and the bottom one is for your normal external view, which will enable you to get back in cockpit.

    So, clear it, or assign Alt-F2 to it.
    Assign F2 to the bottom one.
