Be aware, there is one indicator to the left of the seat, and one on the floor to the left of the seat.

Some nice placing for the gauges by the engineers...

1.They didn't need to check it because they had so much fuel and,
2.They were escort so they had a dangerous mission anyway and had no time to check it.

As long as the pilot checked that his tanks were switched at the proper time, it was much more important to monitor fuel pressure than quantity.
Considering how the Mustang dominated the German fighters it met (in real life, not in game fantasies), I'd say the instruments were very logically arranged, thank you very much.

If your leaking fuel, might be good to know if you've got enough to make it back :lol:

They put the guages in so they could charge a couple hundred dollars more.
