Aircraft type: Junker Ju 87 B-2
System affected: Flaps & Dive Break Controls
Description of the problem(s):

The current Ju 87 B is missing a label on the Flaps Control Box (see screenshots below).





Also the central position is not accessible for either the player or the autopilot. This means the Take-Off position for the flaps is not available.


On top of this the AI is not using the flaps and dive break system as it should be. First the excerpt from the manual on flaps and dive break procedures ...





Currently the AI keeps the flaps and dive break control levers in the setting it wants to achieve (i.e. if it wants to set them to Landing it keeps the lever in the Landing position).



This screenshot shows the setting after the player enters the plane. The lever is fully forward in "Reise - Steigen" while it should be either in "Start" (the currently unlabeled central position) or in one of the idle settings (labeled with '0').
The electric indicators (red arrows) show once a certain setting was achieved and, according to the manual I posted above, the pilot was to switch to one of the idle settings (yellow arrows) to "keep unnecessary pressure off the system".
Now, if we switch on the autopilot the AI will obstinately keep the lever in the position it wants to achieve and NOT switch back to an idle setting. According to the manual this is wrong and not permissable since the flaps and dive break are hydraulically operated and share the same system. If one of the two sub-systems is set to a specific position the other will be idle and not accessible.

The same is true for the dive break which operates the very same way.
