hmm

When you look out the front, it seems like you are sitting to the right in the cockpit, but if you look back, the seat is placed abit to the left.

Am I halfway blind, and fairly dumb, or is this the case. Is it a bug, or is it actually this way in real life?

expecting some massive insults to my brain capacity here :D

The sight was offset to the right.

I think that would put it right behind the bar. It's as if you are leaning over to the sight.

The seat isn't offset to the left, your view is. In your rear view, its as tho your looking over your right shoulder. Looks fine to me. The seat is on the centerline of the aircraft, but the sight is offset to the right so its not blocked by the canopy rail.

Just hit the right arrow key if you want your viewpoint to be right in front of the seat.
