housing with red and yellow push button

Post by Zacke »

Hey guys,

there's an cast-iron looking housing with a yellow and a red push button just underneath the throttle when it's pulled back completely. They're clickable but I don't know what they are goog for.

Any idea?

Thanks,
Zacke

Hi Zacke.
In the spitfire pilots manual page 33 i think the items you are refering to is Gear Horn Trigger / and Gear Horn Silencer , so if throttled pulled back and gear not down you will get the gear warning , which can be silenced by pressing red button , so if gear is stuck up and you wish to silence horn you have that option , other wise it reminds you to get the gear down if you forgot to do so.
