109s (except the Bf109E-4), P-51D and Spitfires are probably lower on the list as they were all redone. The Bf109F-4, G-2, G-6 and G-10 were redone with the AH2 release, but they are done to late AH1 standards.

Nice work...

I think the cockpit bars are way too large, though. I hope we will still be able to move the view backwards a little bit... i sat in a 190F-8 at the Garber Facility (the plane is now at the Udvar Hazy Center outside DC) and the bars are really not this obstructive and distracting...

Thanks Nate - really enjoyed skinning the 190, but I really enjoyed doing the ME 210, He 111 and the 323 more than the 190s...

As far as the 190A8 goes - here's the history behind the skin:

Plane was flown by Major Walther Dahl, while flying with Stab/JG300 out of Juteborg Germany December of '44.
You can find info on Walther Dahl if you google it.

Yeah I agree with you Mand. It seems as if the new 190 cockpit has the same "perspective" problem that the old 109 cockpit did. Natedog will know what I'm referring to. The bars shouldn't come together so narrowly at the bottom.

A second reference from inside, note that the frontal bars are almost "flat".

I think you're right thrila..

The speedometer ranges upto "700", which just couldn't be in miles..!

And using the real 190 ammo counter position to place trim indicators and stuff, was a really ingenious move! WTG!

MANDO has a good point. Looking at it at home the bars are very, very thick.
