What's wrong with the A-26?

Spitfire FR with teardrop dome has a small problem with the flashlight if you look behind the back.
But that seems to be a different question.

A-26 did not see anything

Hurricanes (all Models)
Avengers (all Models)

I cannot see clipping in any of the Hurricanes at all. As far as I am concerned, there's nothing I can fix.

Only visible in open cockpit! This cockpit was designed before opening cockpits.

I do see it in the Avengers in an extreme wide angle.

Hurris can be improved, Avengers cannot. The problem persists with all stand-in cockpits which are significantly narrower than the actual tub. You get either wide angle clipping or fragments of the exterior become visible.

Can you take a look at the pilot positioning in the early He-111 A , B and E variants by Dreamk?

Them are very difficult to drive due the too low seat position.....

All variants of the Swordfish suffer from clipping - it would be nice if such an iconic aircraft could also be fixed, but I do understand how time-consuming all this is.

The way this is expressed leads me to think the problem has to do with the view hook, which is set with the  CAMERA hook location. Usually found at the head of Body.msh (but could be some other mesh, such as, e.g., MaineHull), and easily edited by the player until the desired POV is obtained.

Not really in BAT. SFS packages and all.

However, I manged to fix/improve the Avengers by adding a repeated wing root mesh to the cockpit. Folded Wings still clip, but that can't be helped unless the whole 3d and animation jazz would be copied into the cockpit class. I won't go that far.
