Which cockpits get a rework next?

I would agree with rework on the LA7, anything to get more of them in the arena.

LA7's are my favorite target  :D

Although a Pony D always makes a nice light snack. :)

And Spitties always taste good if you cook them properly  :aok

If they ever allowed us to deploy flaps at about 250 or so in the 190, it would be heaven.  Not that I fly the 190 below 250 much.  But I think it would allow you to do a Rope-a-dope much easier than we can now.  I deploy about 1 notch of flaps at the top, sometimes two, but a higher speed flap deployment would let you bleed speed faster if you needed to get that snap at the top (when you lose lift at the top for your inside wing) faster.  Timing is everything in this game if you fly BNZ.

Fix the Hogs next.  The octagonal nose just screams for a makeover.

F6Fs have one of the most outdated looking models, plus the canopy's front arch bar is too low and obscuring the view.

I really dont mind which ever plane gets reworked. I could be egoistic and say Spits and/or Yaks as its my primary rides but they will get done eventually.

Though what Id like to see is a plane type that has alot of versions so that we get as many reworked rides as possible.

Hence Id prefer 109s, 190s, F4Us, Spits or Jugs.

But Im pretty sure that its gonna be something that will be used in the early ToD tours.

Very true. Been thinking that 190s sure deserve to get updated. Like Moose said 190s are the oldest cockpits in the game which have not been updated.

Would be a logical choise.

I'd like to see the 190s get the next update.  There are many of them in the game, they look horrible and the 190 has one of the best looking cockpits of any WWII fighter.

Fw190s next please.

I'd like to see the 109's redone, especially the F4 those forward frame rails seem far to thick and obstuct alot from your forward view.

Too many a/c need a cockpit rework ...  I'd really love to see HTC team working on them.

BTW, C.205' cockpit is really ugly ;)

i say none... uless they are user friendly , unlike the ki84 and the p38ss...they look nice but the dials are far to small....

maybe time for a cockpit check box.. old or new.

If the dials were just 25% larger I could read many more of them..  A fair compromise?  I can't even make out the ammo counter numbers on the new 38's unless I zoom into them.  Computer graphics are still not up to real world standards so compromising would sure be spiffy.  I mentioned before having cockpit skins so one could select along these lines.  Also, It sure would be nice to skin my own cockpit that I place in a directory on my own machine.  How else can I have my fuzzy dice?  Since no one else would be able to see it there is no need to upload the skin to the server.

Well, maybe we'll get the N1K1 "Rex" seaplane fighter and the N1K1-J added.  That would help the Japanese planeset some.


Also, don't jump to conclussions too fast.  The thread Pyro was responding to was about flight models only.
