I think it could be implemented fairly easily, but of course there is oly so much manpower available. Such is life.
You can do that depending on your stick... just set a button to > or < FoV... if you use a Saitek or a CH stick.. or any stick with decent profiling software, you can assign a button to these keys and simulate looking in and out... thats the only way I ca read my gauges...

While it would be nice to have 6DoF in thos sim I would rather not have it than see the same results I saw in that FW-190 video on You tube... they guy is loking in 6Ds yes.. but at one point his head is outside of his closed cockpit... and on other planes you can see through the gaps in the frame...

I'm pretty sure this has always been in IL-2, was just disabled due to the modeling requirements and cockpit restraints for each plane.
At this stage of the game, I wouldn't care one bit about the modeling problems, but I understand that a new can of worms would be opened when people could move their heads outside the canopy.
But, if they find it in their hearts, I'd love to have 4 or 6 DOF.

Therin lies the problem... the models that they chose to do this on had the extra space in the 3D model... but what about the planes that don't have that extra space because the models weren t made with 6DoF in mind...? You would get the holes and such like what we saw in the P-38 video...

It isn't that simple...
