Thought you would just "hover" over the mall, and beam in.
I'll wait until they get it right.

Pistol, they have the viper also available for download.
But the cylon version is just so much cooler looking!!
Pickenup, you are entirely correct. Just pick your favorite hovering spot and call it good

Interesting query, johnston3407. The answer has to do with focus, and those little focal thingies in our eyes. Movement, detail, and boobs are better viewed when the viewer is relaxed, gazing into space, while slowly scanning the surrounding visual environment. I am not qualified to delve deeper with detailed analysis, but basically, if it moves, you may see it, unless your gaze is focused upon the female mammary glands referenced earlier in this minor exposition of questionable value. Expressed in another fashion, one could postulate the "look, and it won't be seen theory", popular in corn fields that host baseball diamonds.
