I've discovered an easy way to add cockpit to almost every plane in the game, exept for bombers that does not have one. In just 3 step! :rolleyes:
step 1: google a snapshot of your favourite plane cockpit, possibly taken from the pilot seat, and save the image on your pc/mac/ps3/xbox..
step 2: print the shapshot on paper, making sure paper sheet width will fit your television screen size. If you've got a very big wide screen, split the prints in more parts and mosaic them using some glue or duct tape.
step 2.1: cuts the paper cockpit border with some scissors, removing unwanted blank paper parts, making sure not to cut your finger during the process.
step 3: apply the paper cockpit on the television screen, choosing a comfortable height ( i do not suggest you using glue for that, but, maybe some tape ), making sure it will cover part of the viewpoint and part of the television screen.
step 3.1: Start a game with your home made cockpit and have fun!
Drawbacks: Gauges probably would not work on your paper cockpit.

Sweet as DK!
In a similar star wars theme, has anyone seen the latest adidas advert?

That is excellent Gilly. Amazed how well they integrated the people into the film. Makes me wonder about how some films may get tinkered with in the future. I heard Universal wanted to reissue Jaws with a cgi shark overlayed the old replica one but Spielburg vetoed it. With tech from that ad though it could be interesting.

Wow, I never knew 109's had their cockpits mounted on a turntable. Makes sense I guess, why turn your neck to check your six when you can spin the whole cockpit, its just a shame the guns can't fire 360 degrees aswell. :D

Yeah I saw that yesterday, pretty cool, I'd take a pair of nikes any day though.:cool:
And when it comes to a custom cockpit, who wouldn't want this?

Awesome cockpit! I have had rather a few hours in a similar one. Zero alltitude and an average Norwegian winter with 10 or more C below 0 = gets you to be a real man... You actually have to pilot it with the windows open to get the mist of the windscreen!
I guess Adolf developed it to harden his soldiers. It's a sad excuse for a transport...

Aha, I get the connection with the 109 now!
Hitler mobile always reminds me of this:
