| Howdy 3D, First, welcome to the forum, we are glad you joined. please feel free to jump into any conversation that interests you, look at photos, post photos ask quetions or give advice. Now Onto the Stuka. I am no scholar on this subject, but if you are not aware, the Ju-87 had "sirens" on the plane to give it that distinctive sound it had when it pulled into a dive. They were air driven and the airpcraft had to reach a certain speed i believe to get them starts sounding off. If you would like some more information, some photos of the Ju-87's cockpit can be seen here: Warbird Photo Album - Ju-87 Stuka Cockpit and if you want even more, you can purchase these books found here : S q u a d r o n . c o m - Cookie (there are 11 books at this link for the Ju-87 ranging from $8.96 to $31.89) They are all indepth books with plenty of photos. I hope this helps and again, welcome to the forum, Greg aka GEEDUBBYA (GW) |
