I am wondering about the reflections in the instruments. Would you be able to switch them off?

To have those reflections, you would need to have your eyepoint on the seat. That's not where most pilots keep their eyes

It is quite impossible to have the reflections as currently portrayed as the instruments have flat, not convex, glass.

I have sat in both RAF types (Hurricane and Spitfire) in the last couple of years (on the ground, of course) and in neither could I see myself. You have a reflection of the inside of the cockpit-which is dark. So you don't see a reflection at all. It strikes me that this feature, lovely though it looks, departs from reality.
