Click on the hatch that leads to the conning tower (it will be highlighted when you mouse over it), and you'll be taken to the conning tower free view camera.

Also, no planesmen except at GQ? kind of funny for boat to dive when on normal watch without planesmen .
Another one of those design decisions we had to make, given the way the game is coded. In reality, two of the lookouts would man the dive planes when the boat submerged. Otherwise, the dive planes would not be manned while the boat was on the surface. The choice, then, was to either add six seamen to the boat's roster that would otherwise not be part of the ship's complement or to leave the planes unmanned, except at GQ. Of course, we went with the latter choice as the lesser of two evils.
