[vtk-developers] vtkInteractorStyleFlight doesn't work?

[John Biddiscombe]

InteractortyleFlight stopped working a few months back. About the same time
that Seb did some changes to the interactors <cough cough!>

Its been on my list of things to look at for a while now but I haven't got
around to it. I thought that I'd also upgrade the motion to be a bit more
smooth and flight simulator-like as it is a bit jerky in its old
incarnation. Not many people are using it I don't think, so I doubt anyone
will mind. (Only 4 people knew it was broken AFAIK (=you me seb and dean)
(until now))
