taffy2jeffmorgan Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 Hi All. Although not a great fan of the Ju 87, I was wondering if the glass cockpit floor panel will be fitted for target recognition in some future mod ? I was reading recently about tests carried out on captured Ju 87 at Farnborough during the war, by test pilot Eric "Winkle" Brown RN of which he said " I have flown and tested many dive bombers but it was the only one I could dive vertically and with its automatic dive recovery system engaged at bomb release it was in a class of its own" Many pilots disengaged the auto recovery system saying that it allowed the enemy ground flack to predict the the Ju 87's recovery pattern and height ! Cheers. JM. note. Only two intact Ju 87's survive, [1] Museum of Science and Industry, Chicago and [2] The Royal Air Force Museum, London.
