    LOL! :D
    Thanks datel :)

    I've been working on this for 2 hours (mostly because my system[233mmx 64RAM] is damn slow for PS 5.5 handling 20MB+ PSD).. I need a break.. going to MA for a while. :D


    BTW, Í reduced cockpit's size to 80% and 90% respectively. I'll move the panel downwards to allow a better lead angle shot. :)
    But I want you guys to appoint which one should I use? The 80% or the 90% ? (no tweaks yet, just resized them to % of their original size)

    below is the 80%:

    Check...

    VAROITUS ÄLÄ LASKE LASKUSIIVEKKEITÄ JOS NOPEUS ON YLI 300KM/T

    Also checklist should be about 1cm lower.

    POW seems about right. Maybe just little towards windshield?

    Look at views from other planes, you are actually quite far away from seat to the front. Its seems like head of pilot is bended forwards to aim. (seat farther away, gunsight nearer.)

    To match this photo POW should be at position of 2nd canopy side frame instead of 3rd one.

    Actually, instead of 0 on the km/t dial I wanted to put 50, but I don't know if WB can handle it (no equal distances between numbers: 50-100-200-300-...etc).. I'll put 50km/t anyway. :)

    Yes, but if you look around in other WB cockpits you notice pilot doesnt "lay back".

    There is quite a difference if you look 109E-4 cockpit for example. Pilot would be almost blind with his head on headrest. Distance to seat and dashboard is about equal.

    Nothing will be blocked by message buffer:)

    Now it seems there is also space for 1 extra gauge for gears and flaps.

    Sideslip and bank could be placed to original position where it will be seen while aiming.

    YAWWW :D

    Cool illo ! :D

    BTW here is another dev update.. Im working on it slowly, but it IS going on.. :)
    I changed a little gyro's shape and worked a bit more on other stuffs... I don't remember what you suggested for that empty gauge.. I thought about a G-meter, but I think I'm gonna but in another place (extra gauge. :D).. so what do I put in that empty slot?

    I'll add the bars when I finish the whole dash.. don't worry, it will be there. :)
