P3D Ortho

the thread became bogged down in in the definitions...
"you won't get an "ortho" image. (Except in
>the sense that we don't see stereo beyond a few hundred feet, so even a
>flattie image, far away, is arguably "ortho".)Wouldn't there be only one correct "ortho" stereo base?"

Since ortho means "right" as in "correct" and "perpendicular" this
become confusing.  The "correct" perspective for a mapmaker and the
stereo view angles that emmulate human vision are different things
entirely.  The only truly ortho perspective must be mine? ;)
