Looking forward to this one myself, bought LOMAC recently and spent most of my time in the Su-25; hope you'll be including an accurate cockpit with that Marc, the model certainly deserves no less!

We're starting to get some really good original pits from certain authors, which is fantastic, now I can only hope that some of them will turn their attention to the lesser focused upon Soviet aircraft.

Didn't I see and SU-34 in there too at one time. Man all this Su-27 goodness may make me a convert to Russian planes.....great work Marcelo

I would certainly recommend you in doing so, they are simply supreme, as these Flankers highlight quite clearly! I'm definitely looking forward to a release of this new set, I must say, I've really enjoyed Marc's previous Su-27 so if that's anything to go by, I'm sure I'll have some fun with these as well.

But ultimately it would be nice to have an accurate cockpit for the MiG-17, after all, you're going to be spending your time staring at that cockpit; personally I don't want to use a modified version of another plane's pit, it will always be that plane's pit to me and just doesn't sit right. Building cockpits is however a time consuming and difficult task, those that are producing them are already committed to other tasks or are simply too busy. There are some awesome Soviet cockpits already available (Su-15, Su-17, Su-27, MiG-21 etc), however we really do need some for the early MiG series, I'm sure there's someone out there with the knowledge, skill and enthusiasm to put one or more together.

Hey guys, I've been hoping someone would take a crack at a MiG-17 pit, here's a few more pictures which might help; shows off the side panels to good effect.

The main panel itself is not an exact original and contains some Western gauges, however the side panels and other associated systems are genuine. I'm sure there are plenty of other sites available with good reference shots for this particular aircraft. Looking forward to someone taking up the challenge. We need more MiG cockpits!
