- How do you mesure bullets left in gun/Canon?
- Super Charger what is this? and when should you use it?
- Average speed for 109 is about 400km/h
- Indication on water/oil radiator, difficult to se how much you have open/cloed it
- Do the 109 have mirrors?
Hello,

- Yes it was measured visually, since it was never really used in actual front situations, for example they only needed full flaps for landing, they didn't bother with take-off flaps most of the time.
-Combat flaps, well historically they didn't use them a lot but it certainly is possible, a few clicks will provide you with an increased turn rate but you will be sacrificing some speed for it, you shouldnt try outturn anythin in a 109 to be honest
-There's no ammo counter in the Early series I believe, trust your feelings.
-Supercharger, like mixture, is automatic.
-Well FM seems to be a little porked, might link to the mixture problem we have atm.
-I believe there was a small pin on the radiator which would indicate how far it was opened but I don't know much about it, again trust your feelings.
-Mirrors? I believe they were a French invention to observe the war but also used by the other side of the channel.

Hope this helps a bit.
