Title: TBF/TBM
Post by: 800nate800 on April 22, 2013, 11:46:13 AM

Update please! :old: It needs too. I know its like beating a dead horse but still the B5N D3A and SBD F4F Fm2. Our whole Midway line up needs update.

Yup.  Will be interesting to see which is next.  My bet is on the B-26 and Yaks.

oh the 26's need it along with the yaks.

Anyone know why they didn't update the tempest? I'd think the tiff and temp would hvw almost identical cocpits.

The US implemented a standard cockpit panel for fighters in WWII. The UK continued to throw dials at a piece of tin in haphazard fashion up to and including the Harrier and Tornado. There are sometimes large differences between version marks of the same aircraft in the UK WWII inventory.

So far as I can tell only the US and Germany actually gave much thought to cockpit ergonomics and workflow logic.  The UK, Japan and the USSR seemed to leave cockpits in 'beta'.

Interesting to think only germany and the us were on the ball. Wonder why the other countries didn't follow up

With the update to those birds, the addition of the TBD, SB2C, B6N and D4Y would be awesome. :aok
