Good pics, airmalik!

Your picture (above) takes me again to this picture of Stanford Tuck in his Hurri, which I posted earlier...the scale of 'pilot in cockpit' looks very similar to me.

Click on the thumbnail and in the enlarged picture his gunsight and line-of-sight are more evident. Other pictures and historic film indicate that the pilot would often lean forward a bit, putting their eyes lower and more in line with the gunsight when firing.
