Piglets XB-35.

[Seahawk72s]

could someone tell me what the function of these 2 levers is, and what movement does it do?

Looks like landing gear control lever on the VC.

On the 2D panel its the parking brake.

Check message #80 for link to pilot manual.

YB-49 Pilots manual

A nice, clean copy of the YB-49 pilots manual.
Lots of photos and drawings about systems and instruments that would apply to XB-35.

waiting for Warchild I will continue with the work, everything created by Piglets is mapped, I will create new compartments leaving the interior very interesting

Thanks for the offer. This may be the same manual as mentioned in message #80.
Definitely looking for a better copy with clear, sharp photos and drawings.

Yep, same one and you are right, not very clear copy...

Can't wait to see it in the air

Contrails

Some night flying.

even though I looked at the manuals posted here, but I didn't find the function of this tower, it may have escaped my eyes, can anyone help?

 

[MrZippy]

Looks like it's right off of the crew's quarters. Walk-in shower? Pee station?

Its the rear gunner's station with aiming equipment.. I've only ever seen one picture that showed multiple machine guns in the stinger position.

 

[MrZippy]

Here is a mockup of the rear gunner's station.

Found this on the web....

 

[MrZippy]

Very nice! Showing the upper and lower guns and the equip. to run them! I would guess no one in their bunks would be getting any sleep with those things going off!

Piglet

Piglet did a smaller flying wing, an A-12A, with VC. Needs Acceleration for gauges.

This FSX model has VC, folding wings, opening weapon bays, and opening refuel probe.
