Gunner Position - IL-2 Sturmovik Not logged in -   Reply 
I'm trying to get into this sim after using Combat Flight Simulator 1
for many years. Graphics are absolutely amazing.

I have a question. I have the original IL-2 from 2001. Old computer,
boring story.

I have been told that there is a way to have the AI fly the plane and
for me to be the gunner in single player missions. As you can tell, I
am very new to this sim. Can someone explain to me how I would do
that? Is it a special mission? I suspect I need to create a mission
with a specific plane and then hit the A key for autopilot? Is there
anything else I need to do to jump into the gunner position?

Steven

My Forgotten Battles card says the 'C' key moves you between cockpit and
gunner. I vaguely recall that autopilot takes over automatically when you
switch to gunner.

In gunner position, the left mouse button is "Fire".
