Not a bad thing either, if you consider, if you were a Me-109 pilot in real life, and you wanted to stay alive, no doubt you'd get one bolted on...
Although have a look here: http://www.mission4today.com/index.php? ... =109+photo you will need a M4T account to see the pics. Unfortunatly there isnt a Me-109 with a mirror in those pics, but as it is a rear mod, applied in custom - why not do it? I think it would be a handy wee tool, as long as you kept to the likes of the round spitfire mirror, or something simular...
With the external mirrors, like this, and for any aircraft, is it possible to actually add them to the external model of the aircraft....?
I actually dont think it was rare at all for the Mustangs. I have seen formations with mirrors installed. It is so simple to do I would not be surprised if it was common for Luftwaffe pilots to install a mirror.
S!
