Want to follow my aircraft on the on-line map.

I love to fly with multi-player mode because it shows me where I'm flying. It makes me much easier to decide how fast and how high I should fly. Only the problem I have about this is that it doens't follow me by default and I have to check my call sign on the map.

Clicking the "Link to this map" button on the map gave me a great hint. Adding ?follow=callsign to the URL of the server is enough. Since the launcher doesn't have longitude and latitude of every airport, a map around KSFO shows up at the beginning and it takes a bit to switch to the current position. But it's better than nothing.

If I say one wish to the developers of this map server, it is 'please show the position of my aircraft carrier on the map.' Maybe they would say 'Why don't you do it?' :-p
