When should I hit "o" to open the bomb doors? I used this sequence f6, o, 0 and got a message saying the doors weren't opened when trying to drop.

The safest thing to do would be to map the bomb bay door to a joystick button or keyboard key in setup. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

1 big problem right now, is there is no way of knowing if the doors are open or closed. I thought I had them open on 3 runs over enemy base, only to find out they weren't. And by then you have missed your target. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/frown.gif)
Another major issue is the "0" button. HT, please make this a toggle switch, like in the gunner position. We don't have 3 hands. 1 hand for the "0" button (have to hold it down to view), 1 hand for the joystick (rudder control), and a 3rd hand for the "B" button.

Slewdriver,
I would suggest that you remap your keys if you fly bombers often.
E.g.
Look through norden - numpad-0
Bay doors - numpad-,
Zoom keys - numpad +-
You could map bomb release to numpad-enter key if your joystick has only one button (second joystick button also releases bombs).
And I second the feedback request for bay doors and would like to renew the request for icon toggle feedback.
