The next aircraft of "La Glorosia" Pack is spreading its wings - The Loire 46

A modern aircraft with excellent handling characteristics, fast, well armed and good climber, its Gnome and Rhone 14K engine needed to respect special routines such as imperatively letting the engine run at idle regime for a few minutes after landing before cutting it - not respecting this caused oil to clog in the engine and the engine to break during the next fly - The French pilots of the "Escadrille Espana" such as Victor Veniel were used to that and loved this plane, Spanish pilots such as Garcia Lacalle...simply hated it.

The collimator was an OPL31 reflex visor and yes it was very advanced for the period. French were the leader in the systematic introduction of reflex visors on their aircraft already at the beginning of the 1920s.
The only uncertainty is whether this OPL modele 1931 visor had on its reticle a single circle or a double circle as on teh Chretien gunsight it replaced, or possibly 3 concentric circles as had the emergency replacement gunsight . It does not seem to have included "crosshair" or graduations as on the later model of OPL visor that equipped French aircraft in 1939.

Cool! I finally made enough room in air.ini for the D372, but I see I have some more trimming to do!
-update- got it flying, feels like the CG is pretty far back, like right under the pilot's butt. Is it supposed to be that way? Also noticed that when my pilot got killed and I went to the external view, the pilot's feet popped out the bottom of the plane.
Beautiful plane!
