The new cockpit framing

In my case; at least; Track IR has solved nearly all the problems you guys are talking about.

OTH; the Track IR 6 view; while being very realistic; has ruined the Jug and the Tiffy for me. It really makes one appreciate why Jugs (amongst others) had an exterior rear view mirror.

190s I have to agree here they HAVE too thick framing. So thick that it basicly makes it horribly bad.



This would be fine if the FW-190 cockpit was rated as bad by those that tested in WWII.

In fact it had one of the best cockpits of any WWII fighter.  It's visibility for both sighting view and search view were praised by every nation that flew one.

All the best,
