Just one more thing, in RL it was possible to swing the control wheel over to the observer so that he could take control. Is this possible in the sim?

This cool feature of the He-111 can be seen in the Battle of Britain movie.

I'm sure its not possible in CloD (or perfectly hidden). It would be more or less useless because there is not much what the pilot can do while the observer is flying.

According to the manual, the swing is only allowed while flying on autopilot. If you need some time for navigation, checking engine values, fuel management or what ever, you don't need a co pilot, you just use the autopilot and everything is fine.

This would just demonstrate the feature of the He-111, you play with it once or twice and over all it is completely useless. Things like this should be implemented, when everything else is done and the developers start to be bored (with other words: never).

Looking through some old mags recently, i noticed a picture of a spanish He111 and the pilot seems to be sitting on the other side, was that historically correct or just a film thing ?

Sorry if this has already been answered.

This must be the feature of the control wheel of the real live He-111. Viking asked about this. It is possible to swing it over to the co-pilot/observer.

No, the entire dome was offset on the other side.

I'm not sure but I don't think that someone has build a reversed version of the He-111.

My best guess is, the picture is printed reversed. This happens from time to time. If you mirror the picture horizontally, everything looks much better, even the :cool: guy on top is wearing his wrist watch on the left arm as usual.

I think the aviation-orientated journalists found the picture and the more artistic orientated guy who had to arrange the front page found that the reversed picture gives a better optical impression in connection with the subtitles.

Everybody has his own priorities.

Has to be a reversed image, the hatch is on the wrong side too.

Way too many things are backwards for it to be a proper image.

Correct orientation of the He111
