I'm not sure about this virtual cockpit business. I thought F1 gave you a cockpit view? or you mean that thing with five dials and no sign of your own plane? I know <shift> (or was it <Ctrl>) <F1> centres your gunsight in planes where it isn't already centred, which the Mossie's wasn't, so I changed into that mode before doing the test.

The heights coming over the radio (maybe only for American and British missions?) are definitely weird, certainly since "1946", maybe since the "Complete Edition", could even have been as early as "Pacific Fighters" at a push. The heights don't match your height from the speedbar, which is metres for me usually, they might sort of match your height in metres converted to feet, but then the numbers in brackets seem to usually match your height in feet taken as a number and converted from metres into feet, even though it should already be feet (i.e. too high by a factor of slightly over three).

It's not a big deal for me, but when people say it isn't happening when I saw it myself, that makes it a matter for concern.
