Yes, flyable. As I said earlier, it is absolutely no fun flying Ju-88 and He-111 starting from 1942, unless there arent any enemy planes around. (in fact, they are already little more than sitting ducks even in 1941), They are completely unable to defend themselves, with their low speed and useless guns.
What makes me really sad, there are more than enough cockpit references for the most important Do-217 variants (E2/E4, K1, M1), but no attempt was made to model them properly (OK, except one mod). We are slowly getting more and more multi engined flyable bombers which is really good, (cant wait for the B-24) but unfortunately none of them are german or japanese. Yes, I know its incredibly hard to model a cockpit, but at least adding a later He-111, (H11 or H16) with better armament would be more or less easier, so we would get a LW bomber that is more useful than what we currently have. One more point: By 1942, LW barely had any H-2 and H-6 variants, they were all converted to H-11/16.
The only is hope that the He-177 cockpit project will start someday. I'd gladly donate money to them, (even though I still think the price is too much) but here in India people arent rich at all, including myself.
