This is an interesting thread of discussion.

In terms of communicating with a simulation host, are there any plans to
support CIGI for communicating between the host and osgVisual? I would think
that would be a good thing to support...

Hi vijeesh,

I personally use the animationpath ( I recorded it for 1 second while
hovering on the destination location) so it immediately strts at that
position and as soon as I want to use another camera manipulator, I use
that. So I use th animationpath not for playing a real animation but to
start at my desired location. 

You said you want to use a simulation host. Then you have to subclass
extLink to use any network technique to transport lat, lon, alt, and rot_x,
rot_y and rot_z from your simultion host to the visual system. You can look
into extLinkVCL for inspiration.

If you have a running simulation host which provides the correct lat/lon
coordinates for your aircraft, then the visual system will immediately
retrieve that values over your extLink and will position the camera
accordingly.

Cheers,
Torben
