opening canopy

How does one open the canopy on different A/Cs?(Hurricane,Spitfire,Mustang...)
Where can I find the control kee for this feature?
I read that for the messersmith it's control E,what about the other A/Cs?

I think this is the wrong forum mate! Sure you didn't mean IL-2 Sturmovik (1946)

This doesn't have a mustang yet and only a few select planes in original IL-2 Sturmovik had opening canopies, usually controlled by CTRL+C

In cliffs of dover it's Ctrl+spacebar by default

I believe CRTL E is the bailout command.

You have to open(or jettison) the canopy first before bailing out.

In Clod there are 2 separate commands.One is open canopy(for allied planes) and the other is jettison canopy(some Axis planes where canopy does not slide back)

I think O opens and CRTL O closes.I think jettison is CRTL J.
