Hi Mando,

>Arm and and launch triggers for W.Gr21 in 190A8

Let me point out that the translation of the labels is incorrect.

The left switch is "arm", but the right switch is actually "jettison".

The W.Gr. 21 was launched using the B2 button on the control stick, the same button as on the bombs.

To arm the rockets, one circuit breaker on the right-hand panel had to be activated, the abovementioned arm switch had to be set to "armed", and the gunnery main switch on the round counting device had to be switched on.

I assume with a different circuit breaker, bombs could be selected to be launched with the B2 button.

I have no idea whether there was a means of preventing that the switch could be set to drop bombs and launch rockets simultaneously :-)

Regards,

Henning (HoHun)
