General Imperial Corsair interior issues

[RetroPaladin]

It looks good, it's fun OP, but

Courier's cockpit - the frontal circle bar obstructs the view.
It's not needed.
The best variant is to give us a new clean cockpit instead of crappy Courier's.
You did a good thing with Cobra, but why you returned back to reuse the old assets?

The engine boost sounds - it's too crispy and will kill our ears during the multiple boost.
Quieter/less crispier sound is welcomed.

I'm ready for comments

Hey you asked...

I like the obstruction, at least in the Courier. It feels like a fighter jet in that way, providing a tunnel-vision effect that pairs really well with high-speed, giving a better illusion of that speed. But I understand what you mean, they make the Bubble cockpit for a reason IRL.

The bars are unreasonably thick, especially the frontal one. The fighter jet's canopy is openable to let the pilot inside, and therefore there are the bars to connect the glass parts, but the Courier and the Corsair have the door to enter the cockpit. Just glass would be completely fine. Or at least extremely thin circular bars.
This part needs to be revised for both ships.

This. There should be no reason to duplicate the Courier's cockpit here. Similar, sure, but identical down to the visual obstructions the ribbing causes? No.

Unfortunately, the Courier's cockpit is the only thing which is stopping me from buying the ship with ARX.

It's not an emperial ship. Just sayin'.

Most if not all ships have some kind of bars and supports going across the canopy. In some ships it's way worse than in others (I'm looking at you, Python...)

It would be nice to have a ship where the canopy is just a completely unobstructed bubble with nothing going across it, but...

That would be the same reason. It's a nice vessel with good stats; but you are also piloting the ship for hours on end, so having a non-obstructed view goes a long way. I figured FDev would have learned this about their players.

the canopy is just a completely unobstructed bubble

SK Dolphin and Beluga - the winners
Guta Clipper and Cutter have big windows
Federal medium ships have quite organic symmetric bars on sides - at least you have a clean vertical view...

Looks like you're sitting in the back seat of a fighter jet... I hate the view, it's ugly, the canopy looks from the inside, why would you make it so unnecessarily large?

Almost all of the canopies are comically oversized.

Yeah, that's true, but the large area in front of the instrument panel that's basically wasted space looks absurd.
