Heinkel He 177 Greif Night Bomber by Uncle T

My take on theGerman long distance bomber Heinkel 177 Greif (Griffin). Night bomber version.
It's an approximation and in no way a 1:1 replica.
I wanted to differentiate the front and aft auto-cannons from the regular machine guns so used the bigger gun. Sadly they take a lot of space in an already small fuselage, so the auto-cannons are a bit wonky clipping through other parts but they work reasonably well. The front facing machine gun in the canopy I moved to the side to get it to work better without clipping issues. The seating arrangement is also a bit off in some instances since Bob is a big not so bendy boy, but it has a crew of six.

Alt controls to fly.
W/S: Variable throttle.
A/D: Ground steering /Yaw.
Up/Down arrow: Pitch.
Left/Right arrow: Roll.
X/Disable steering: Landing gear.
Hold X/Invert steering: Bomb bay doors.
Fire action 1/Num 1 (pilot's seat): Drop bombs.*

NEW!
L/Headlights: Fire in engine one.
K/Hazard light: Fire in engine two.
I can't stop the engines since the plane won't fly with lopsided engines but you get a lot of smoke and some flames (as in orange smoke) for RP purposes.

Front machine gun: controlled from Navigator's seat next to the pilot with Alt+arrow keys or Alt+mouse. Camera 1.
Front auto-cannon in gondola: Controlled from seat in gondola with Alt+arrow keys or Alt+mouse. Fire with Fire action 1/Num 1. Camera 2.
Rear facing machine gun in gondola: Controlled from seat in gondola with Alt+arrow keys or Alt+mouse. Fire with Fire action 2/Num 2. Camera 3.
Remote controlled top twin machinge guns: Controlled from the seat under the cupola with Alt+arrow keys or Alt+mouse. Fire with Fire action 1/Num 1. Camera 4.
Top aft machine gun: Controlled from seat in turret with Alt+arrow keys or Alt+mouse. Fire with Fire action 1/Num 1.
Rear auto-cannon: Controlled from rear seat with Alt+arrow keys or Alt+mouse. Fire with Fire action 1/Num 1. Camera 5.

*Bombs are timed and it takes about 4 seconds to drop all. A green button will light up while they are dropping, and a green light will light up in cockpit when they've all been dropped and it's safe to close the bomb bay doors.
