I am dissapointed at the F4U cockpit.

That screen shot is the Alpha Bleu Ciel F4U-7 for FS9 or the FSX version that was modded by NorCal Prop Club and the panel is not correct for an F4U-7. Oleg's cockpit is not perfect either.

http://home.online.no/~andejaco/images/f4u1cockpit.jpg Is a scan from the Squadron Signal book F4U Corsair in Color and is an artists depiction of a F4U-1A cockpit.

The F4U-1 (Corsair I) should not have the gun arming switches, gunsight rheostat and certainly no bomb arming switches on the coaming.

The F4U-1A should have the gun arming and gunsight rheostat switches on the left side of the coaming and a pair switches on the right side of the coaming; one to arm a single bomb, the other to arm the release mechanism.

The cockpit for the F4U-1C and -1D are pretty good, but lacks the rocket control box that was mounted on the right side of the cockpit.
