    Dive Brakes

    Does anyone know of any CFS2 aircraft that actually have dive brakes that can be deployed/retracted? I see there is a keyboard button for this but I can't see any aircraft where it functions.

    I suppose Wolfi´s Stuka also has them.

    I've tried a few different aircraft/dive bombers (AI) and they don't seem to be using their dive brakes even though they are on the model. They are certainly not visibly deploying (for me) on the Dauntless AI when I fly alongside them and take a close look in a mission.

    The dive breaks and the flaps work unfortunately only on the “player” aircraft

    Thanks for the info Wolfi, in the past I had shrugged it off as just another AI glitch.
