Possible but no promises, may get access to a Me-410 Cockpit. Any use?

[Mysticpuma]

Obviously with the news that the 410 is coming to Normandy I am exploring the possibility of gaining access to the cockpit of an Me-410. Should this come to fruition would it be of use to the devs or is most of that detail/research known and of little use? 

Cheers, Mysticpuma.

Regardless of what the developers say (might be wise to email them directly, just in case this thread gets missed), I'm sure that forum members would be interested in seeing photos, even if the developers don't need them.  Got to be one of the more unusual Luftwaffe cockpits,  with the pilot looking down between his knees at his engine instruments and down through the nose, and the guy in the back operating a remote gunsight.

Yes. Need any kind of quality picture or data on the 410 cockpit you can get.

Dan Patterson is a photographer and has two books out that feature the cockpit and gunner positions of the 410.I've got he cockpit book and can vouch for the quality of the photos unfortunately it is in storage back in the states
