Title: Gun site size?
Post by: Chris on June 09, 2002, 08:40:37 PM

Why is there a diference in the size of the gunsite in the forward view in the 109's?  The size changes with the g6 and g10 being smaller than the early versons.

Head positon is ah defualt forward view.  I asume that the larger sites on some other fighters, ie p51, had to do with the size of the site in RL and or, how far the pilot's eye was from the site.

by the way all sites I have looked at so far are AH defualt.  I have not yet tryed any of the custom sites you all have made.

Thanks,
Chris

thats a question we all ask..........

g6 g10 sites are way small

e4 f4 g2  are big.

They used different revi sites but why would the scale be soo much different.

Yeah, it seems we have 2 sizes. In one plane a gunsight I'll make might look good and the lines are nice and clean, but use that same sight in a plane that seems to reduce the size and it looks like crap and the distances are off.

Ah-So:D    After reading some of the past discussions,  I can see it would cause some people to become a bit distressed if they got hit at D1 with a 30mm.;)

Yaks and La's suffer from the small gunsight too, but I have several kills at D1 in YakT +)
