As I understand it, the Fulmar & Swordfish will be AI only for now, though I think TD said that they hope to make all newly-added planes flyable when they can. So probably in a later patch.

Wierd...Many of us have been flying both of these aircraft for sometime now..The Fulmar is pretty sweet & the Swordfish isn't bad,except for some minor glitches in interior/cockpit view...I wonder why the update won't be flyable...
Perhaps the exteriors will be first cleaned up & then work redone on interior?

Both of the mod versions have very substandard cockpits.

The Fulmar's is actually taken directly from an in game Hurricane.

Not up to TD's standards at all.

Well that means that there is quite a lot to look forward to...& that's a good thing.Maybe I'll put off a Swordfish Campaign or two!

Something I would like to see is a sprucing up of some of the older existing aircraft, specifically the Bf-109's (cockpit esp.), P-47 and mig-3. I would like to see the sliding window feature and cockpit lean-out feature (as found on the DXXI) on the 109's as I think it would help taxing very much. Cockpit lean out would also be great on the spitfire and several others but I realize the older cockpits may not support this feature.

109 cockpits didn't slide but swung off to the right. In fact they were so sensitive that even taxiing with them open was prohibited.

He is talking about the sliding window panel to the left of the pilot, when the canopy itself is closed.
