# Cockpit View

Continuing from the previous section, dogfighting, it could be interesting to see the view from the cockpit. Click the **Cockpit View** button or press **F5** to enter into cockpit view:

Go to **Options → Cockpit** to choose whether you wish to see **IAS**, **CAS** or **TAS** in the HUD. Note that IAS is not always available.
