Looking good!

Would have been nice to have a functioning altimeter in the front.

i was jus telling someone bout ww2 online the other day. i didnt think it was still active. played it for 20mins when it 1st released! what a flop lmao. it hardly ran for anyone, i remember telling 5 people to jump in a truck for a secret mission, drove them out an hour into the wilderness, and logged off. leaving them stranded and a good 6 hour walk back to the nearest town with no way of suiciding and spawning back. :-)
