Gunsight label

Post by NachtPiloten »

In Roland Remp's book there is a picture of a gun sight label that I can not read. I do not have the Uhu, is there a gun sight label in the A0's cockpit as per the Remp photo? If so what does it say.

Thanks

Unfortunately, I have not seen Roland's book, here are a few shots of the HE-219's sights and switches as found in Flight Simulator.

As you can see, the gunsight switch to the left of the pilot says "AUS" (which roughtly translates to "out."), the other word is "HELL" (roughly translated to "brightly.")

It essentially is a switch that controls whether it is off and the brightness of the sight itself.

Also, note that the site itsefl does not have any wording on it as well.

This plaque is mounted/glued on the inner glass that divides the cockpit into two, unpressurized nose/gunsight and pressurized crew, compartments.

Here's the visual explanation:

No, the Shockwave's A-0 hasn't got this plaque.
