Hey morfeind, you ever looked into the (aircraft.cfg) file and divided the first 3 digits by 3? Don't worry if the forth number down in many of them says 975. It only seems to matter in P47's.
Still wish Hitech would give us control over both (x & y) when we set convergence. Heck even give us a (y) setting for the gunsight reflector glass or at least (High, Medium, Low). Heck the engine deck down slope of the 109's allows a Revi line of sight down to -11 feet at 437 yards. Thats only 8.4Mil or about the same adjustment the Tiffie's MkIIL gunsight had for rocket firing. MkIIL is the spitfire gunsight you see occasionaly with a dial knob on it. Used them for rockets and the 40mm.
Can you see the complaints after players set their Tiffy gunsight for rockets in the hanger and don't remember to shoot high with the cannons after they use up the rockets? Though it would be close to the drop compensation I put in my wing gun gunsight. A 5 degree tilt would get you about 10Mil. The Revi could tilt about 14 degrees.
Can you see the conversations you would have with new players trying to first determine how they setup thier (x, y, z) to help them correct their gunnery problems?

Trainer: Hmmmm, OK, use High for shooting long range at bombers with a 650 convergence. Use Medium to furball with a..Hmmmm, 350 convergence. And yes...Low for rockets. Got that nadsmasr??
nadsmasr: I jess wants to shoot em realll good. Quit confusin me with all that knowlege. I jess wanna point at em and they go boom.
Trainer: You have your gunsight set to High don't you??
nadsmasr: If you say so. You the trainer. I thought High was for High Powered, sumthin like that or another. I juss want them to go boom when I point it at them!!
Trainer: You wanna share one of those shooters?? What are you using for a chaser?? Realistic gunnery, yeah, someone just got old and lost their mind. Realistc gunnery my bippy.......This is a bleeping game not WW2 on a popsickel stick. They couldn't smack a bull in the rump with a banjo in the old model. Now they can't hit the floor dropping their pants in the doctor's office. If I ever meet that IDIOT with all that Mil math from the BBS. I'll smack the floor with him and use a banjo to give him a bleeping exam......
nadsmasr: Is it something I said??
Mrs. Trainer: Mr. nadsmasr....Mr. Trainer just walked out the front door mumbling something about Texas, Mil Idiots and Banjos. Do you know why he's running around the yard flapping his arms and shouting piu, piu, piu, stick that where the Banjo don't shine??

If you take the D9 up offline with the 20mm set to 275 and fly reasonably level about 285 TA against the offline target. You will notice you get a pattern from the 20mm zero'd at 275 and then again at about 550. Now if we could set the 20mm crossing at 550 but leave the 275 point alone.
