Title: Bristol Fighter Guages
Post by: VFCBaxter on January 12, 2011, 02:23:49 PM

I flew this AH2 version for the first time last night and was wondering why the altimeter and speed guages are side ways in cockpit view.

It's for realism.

Don't worry I posted it way back as a bug. I was wrong that is how it was.

Have you looked at the placards and guage text in the F2b? There's some funny stuff in there.....  :rofl

I have some literature about those planes but they dont mention the cockpit, mainly the markings. Not many books cover the "work stations".
