Mohit, You can edit your fsx.cfg file. (Change "WideViewAspect=False" to "WideViewAspect=True"). I prefer to simply zoom in or out while in 2d view using "+" or "-" keys. Use "Shift +/-" for finer incremental changes.

Go to your main FSX Directory - SIMOBJECTS - AIRPLANES - PMDG 737-800NGX - PANEL and load the panel.cfg with Notepad. Find the following lines listed below and change the values listed in red to what I have below and it will work just fine.There is just one little issue. If you ever hit reset eye point view it seems to get out of whack. To fix this just look out your left or right window in 2d-panel view and it will be back to where it should be. I tried a bunch of numbers and tried to compare the virtual cockpit vs 2d-panel cockpit views until I was able to get the 2d-panel to look the same as virtual cockpit view and 5.5 seems to do the job.[VIEWS]VIEW_FORWARD_WINDOWS=MAIN_PANEL,MINIPANELVIEW_FORWARD_DIR=5.5, 0.0, 0.0VIEW_FORWARD_ZOOM=0.8

WideViewAspect=Truei didnt understand that is that something i need to change how can i do this>?
WideViewAspect=True The line above should say True if you have a Widescreen Monitor and False if you do not. You can find this line in your FSX.cfg file. Edited by UAL115
