Hmm, never seen a B-25? They didn't have a gun sight for the pilot, or co-pilot.:D

Well, I dunno for sure. :confused:

I was gonna come back and say maybe it was the glass nose bomber version, but as you can see, it's not:eek:

I think they mounted a  gunsight on the instrument panel for the pilot.  And he aimed and fired the forward firing guns... I remember my granpda telling me that the B-25 was his favorite plane that he flew because he finally got to do his own shooting.  He of course wanted to fly P-38's but as he put it "The damned army put me in bombers".

CFS3 is bad - it's really, really bad! It looks bad and it flies bad...
---

Took me 2 days only to get it to run with my Radeo9700 - I am really, really dissapointed! Didn't put many expectations into it but it's so bad even the SWOTL factor can't pull it out.

Keeping it though - community already working on fixes... :D

the ground looks better in IL2 Sturmovik, and that's 1 year old.

yea thought b25's had an iron sight for the pilot ... and well ive never played IL2 or any newer games but that looks pretty good compaired to CFS1 or just about any flight sim ive played ..but when ppl try when they make maps for AH it looks way better than CFS3 ever could

hehe look at them.. round engine nacelles, who are they trying to kid? Is AH the only correct sim with hexagonal engines? What do you expect from Microsoft and some russian guy. Next thing you know they'll be trying to pass off those pointy green things sticking up from the ground as trees when we all know from the air trees just look like green splotches painted on the ground. :rolleyes:

700mph speedometer?
I wonder if anyone can get that bird faster than Mach 1 :D

btw cockpit looks pretty ugly for a boxed sim (IMHO of course). After FS2002 cockpits I expected more from M$.
