With no aircraft tracked, Cockpit can ride the selected AIS vessel. Entry needs only Live AIS Vessels and a selected vessel; C, double-click and the entry buttons (reading BRIDGE with a ship icon) enter it, while voice stays aircraft-only. The eye sits on the AIS position at a representative bridge height for the vessel's type family, looks along true heading and moves along course over ground. The last fix is dead-reckoned for up to 180 s between the layer's refreshes, and on rivers and lakes the waterline is read from the rendered surface around the ship rather than the geoid. The bridge HUD shows speed and course over ground, a straight heading tape, window mullions, the AIS destination as a reported voyage and a heading-up radar of nearby ships (3 to 24 NM). The arrow keys look around, Home or 0 looks ahead again. The vessel layer hides the ridden ship's sprite and card, ignores scene clicks while held, and returns the camera to the vessel's map view on exit.
