Undercarriage-/flaps-down indicators
#3

The flap indicators on the Spit were flip-up with the pivot at the rear, not entirely sure on the gear but from the looks of things they were of the elevator type (I can't see any recesses around them, which would likely be present if they flipped). I have a few photos of K5054 after a belly landing showing the (then paired) flap indicators quite clearly, if my scanner was working I'd post them.

In case anyone reading is not sure as to their location, the Spit's flap indicators were on the trailing edge, above the centre of the flap; you can see them ingame on the skin, they're shaped a bit like round-nosed bullets. I'm not sure about their locations on other aircraft, but more than likely they'll be easy to find after a brief study of the wing textures.
