Pilot head limits of the Mustang Mk.III and Focke Wulf 190 D9 "Dora" has been adjusted but these 3 planes left out.

 

Issue:

  • [1]    Spitfire XIV and IX share the same restrictive limits horizontally as the Mk V despite the 2 newer planes having the more blown canopy.
  • [2]    All 3 spitfires could have an increase in head space vertically like the FW190 D9.

[1]: Demonstrated here the Spitfire XIV/IX shares the same exact limits horizontally as the Spitfire V:

Here are the differences in the modelling shown in game clearly:

[2]. Demonstrated here the Spitfire V / IX / XIV have blown top section:

Suggested New Head limit horizontally based on similar view in Malcolm hood P51 [Head limit flush with body].

(I was not sure about the vertical improvement, it is up to the developers to decide this)

Thank you for reading the post and thank you for the Malcolm hood limits in the P-51 Mustang Mk.III and FW190D9 Dora! :good:
