Default BF109 - Can't we just have the gunsight in the middle?
Seriously.

Over a decade of faffing about with Shift-F1, leaning over, loosening straps or whatever...i'm weary of it. Just place the damned thing in the centre of the dash! Is anyone really going to be put out by such a minor concession to usability?

Realism be hanged in this instance.

A much more sensible concession would be to simply make the default center view for the 109 (and pretty much all other German aircraft for that matter) line up with the gun-sight.

LOL I kind of agree, in real life you would close one eye when using the offset gunsight but if you have track ir or freetrack its easy to lean slightly to the left.

Personally I love having to move to get the gunsight in view wish some fps games would add track ir in that way too

No, simply let it where it is and just change the parallax of the aiming, as the pilot, in real life, didn't move his head to aim, but just close his left eye.

I doubt any pilot closed his eye in combat. Deprives you of 3d view and distance estimation. Just give us a button that has to be pushed throughout aiming that moves the head automatically to the right position while keeping head shake and g effects. Bingo. The current way is not more realistic as viewing hardware is not simulating real movement well and making it unrealistically difficult to aim with the 109 compared to other planes.

See that is funny because.... there is no one eye button, Ctrl+E is eject...

Apparently it needed an explanation...
