They also seem to be dimmer (should be same brightness of white) but that might be just an effect of the size. ![]() They are sized as 7 and 8 from the gauge in HB/DCS. Might be a video game thing that cant really be fixed.ĭrum digits are smaller than they should be. The altitude and speed gauge especially are hard to read, but idk if its a screen/render-thing or too low contrast. Personally, the only place where I got problems reading stuff is the gauges though. I just want people to see/agree that our F-14 is an extremely worn example, or prove me wrong, thats fine too. Which again, theres nothing wrong with that. So logically it seems to imply our F-4 cockpit is one of the worst ever been in service this way. Its a pretty big elephant in the room that a) almost no aircraft anywhere has text this badly worn, and b) no aircraft in DCS comes close, not carrier either. Despite all the wear, the text survived all of the torture. Like, look at this A-7 Skyraider cockpit below, do you really think this is the best sustained kit they couldve thrown together? I dont even know why it would matter if its from different aircraft, assuming all if them were in service. I cannot give you a perfect and sourced example, sure, but I dont think anyone can do that. To be honest, I dont really get whats your point? I havent questioned if the F-14B cockpit is realistic, that it couldve flown that way.īut it sounds like youre argueing that literally every example of a plan looking better and with more readable text is just fake, misleading or not realistic? That seems a bit ridiculous. Meanwhile, get jets that come off cruise and go right to the museum, such as the B at Akron-Canton, and it was even rougher than what we have exampled in the HB model when it arrived, pre-demil. The jet formerly at the QAM, that a couple years back was moved down to the US Naval Academy, had a stunning cockpit based around a number of donor jets, and had the benefit of being with the Reapers for years leading up to it- thus not dealing with the day to day environment at sea. ![]() If Dayton wants a replacement panel to a better standard and another museum has it, they're going to get it, per the service artifact loan terms.īy the same token, many of the last jets off cruise that were saved from the jaws at AMARC were getting the best gear to put on display. Similarly, the USAF Museum collection is a rather poor starting point of comparison, given the material access they grant themselves to NOS in the supply network, as well as material from off of other aircraft at other museums. ![]() Who can detail the difference between the operational handling and working environment of a USAF aircraft versus a US Navy one? Anyone? Anyone?
