S.M 79 Sparviero Question
#6

I've never liked this plane, and I've never given a notice, untill I flew it in IL2. Than I changed my mind. It flies beautifully, surprisingly maneuverable, very tight turning abilities and absoulutelly low stalling speed. I'm impressed! The gunner position gave me a headache until I tried to open the side window in the cockpit. I surprised that the cockpit open message appeared, but I didn't see any change in the pilots seat. Than I went to the gunner position and it was already opened, although there were no enemy fighter activity in that area (autopilot opens dorsal and ventral gunner shields when enemy fighters appears). Than I had the solution. I was also surprised that no flap control. I thought it has no flaps at all. Than turned out, it has automatic flaps and leading edge slots. Very impressive!
