Mirrors and the Luftwaffe


Recommended Posts

What I’d like to know is why the hs-129 mirror is pointed at the pilot’s seat, and not the tail.

Hey, with this large front window, where the attacked ground troops can clearly see him, the pilot definitely needs a makeup mirror:)

VR or no?  Some planes with mirrors are, I've been told, a lot better with functionality with VR.  

If it's that way in VR as well, then I agree, it would be odd.

Using a monitor, not that I know why that would matter here? To see the tail I have to lower my head below the gunsight and the canopy frame clips part of the mirror in that case.

If you've adjusted your camera position, it won't work right.

Like Billy over here? That's why Billy crashed his car, no mirror no problem

@Krisu So now we know. If they had put mirrors in their planes they all would have crashed them admiring themselves.  And all this time we thought it was the 109's narrow landing gear.
