Hi all, and a happy new year! :)

 

In bf109s main panel is a yellow switch, which is currently not implemented. What is it for (in the real thing)? Thanks!

It's the "lever for window cleaning" ("Hebel für Scheibenspülung" via Google Translate), according to the proper pilots handbook.

Page 7, item 27.

 

I expect a proper Deutsch speaker can give a better translation.

 

Dunno what it's actually for though as there's no wipers on a Bf-109, so could be an outside spray or internal defog?

yellow color marks fuel system, and fuel is (was in real plane, not only for Bfs) used for de-ice
