I know most of us hint on various issues of flight performance for our AC.  But one issue of "realism" that really drives me is graphics, and that includes cockpit art.

Below is a link to a FW190A-8 cockpit, with very detailed listings of it's various dials and layout.  I posted this in another forum but so that the HTC crew can maybe view and do what they want with it, I'll repost here.

Some things like the ammmo counters I can see not placing in, but like I said, the more real looking the better.

Wow!!! wonderful link!!!!

Surprises me a lot of things, the most important thing is that the fuel tanks (front and aft) were  used aft first and front later...just the inverse of the autosettings in Aces High...I will manually change tanks and see how it affects the maneouverability...maybe 190s turn better with the CoG a bit forward.

Dunno will look at it  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Looks almost like you should be able to see fuel and temp without looking down...
Nice link
