The 'Left Eye' image is a bit of a guess. I had no gauge to measure how far I should shift the view-point to the left with the mouse to accurately recreate what the left eye would, in isolation, see. It doesn't matter so much, though. The picture was illustrative rather than scientific.

....but also, you can see the gun-sight AND out the front windscreen.
That's what I have been attempting to demonstrate (with varying degrees of success ).

It doesn't look like that picture you keep posting though, impossible to simulate 3d on 2d properly...
It's not an attempt to simulate 3D.

It's a simulation of how the Revi reticle would appear to a real 109 pilot with both eyes open.

Currently CoD simulates a Cyclops with one eye open, looking bang down the centreline of the aircraft.

Because of this unfortunate but necessary Cyclopean view we have had, for a decade now, a work-around; the Shift-F1 view.

More recently Track-IR has enabled the player to lean to the right and achieve a similar result. Unfortunately people are mistaking this as reality. People really do think Shift-F1 simulates what a 109/190 pilot had to do just to see their gun-sight.
