German gunsights and shift+f1

[KnightFandragon]

One thing in this game ive always wondered is why do German and Japanese planes need to Shift+f1 to center thier sights and why wasnt the game designed originally to center the gunsight based on the plane your flying. The ShiftF1 thing bugs me b/c when you fly an axis plane you lose half your FoV. Allied planes can zoom all the way back and they have so much more FoV. In the 190 you have like no FoV when you get done with its fat cockpit bars and the zoomed FoV, same for the 262.
