I'm sure this was covered in the distant past, I was flying the Fox Four Sea Fury tonight when I noticed in my rear view (& VC pan) that I have a orange transparent pumpkin inside a mostly transparent box just in front of my rudder. This is with the updated model (file dated 06-08-2007). I cannot attach a screen shot here or I would. I imagine I'll just have to live with it, any chance of a fix TR?

Well, I figured it out on my own. Embarrassed

After looking at the VC model in ACM I could see that it was... the headrest. I guess either by design or because of close proximity, it appears transparent.  My pumpkin was the pad! How funny.

Anyway, never mind me.

No trouble.   It was a legitimate question.   The headrest was made translucent as a compromise to visibility.  Placing a rearview mirror is a pain, and we didn't want the pilots to be blind....thus the 'transparent pumpkin'.  Wink
