I have seen more then one instance where the gondola (ventral gun position) is on wrong side, both still images and movies.

Look closely in this image, gondola on wrong side.

On the official promo movie, 27 seconds in, you see gondola on wrong side.

I am especially surprised at the movie, so, FTW??

They just mirrored the images. The actual model is correct, so no worries.

Yes.

I assumed it was correct in game, but to show up in game pictures and official video does look... embarrasing.

I wish this was the only embarassing part of this launch....

Those two images being mirrored is the equivalent of somone worrying about scuffing the hardwood floors on the Titantic while the lifeboats are filling up.

Pretty much. Talk about being nitpicky

Interesting you mentioned the Titanic as analogy to the game. We all know what happened with that ship (almost 100 years ago too).

Le bon Dieu est dans le détail

nit picky is the shad of RLM65 Hellblau is incorrect or the Spitfires rivets should be raised at this point, not flush.

Pointing out errors in marketing advertisements targeted to customers who know these aircraft like the back of their hand is being helpful.
