That's really fantastic work Warren,

I'll be watching this to see how it develops. I've always pondered the idea
of a three view 2d panel for my Parhelia flying. The VC has it's merit but
only the really well done one's (PMDG 737, Aeroworx B200 as an example) keep
my attention for any length of time. In addition to my Parhelia, I use a
NVidia PCI card with two LCD's for my 2D panel's so I generally use a custom
panel (FS Panel Studio) on one LCD and then break out additional panels
(radios, FMC, Throttles, GPS etc.) on the other one. I keep thinking about
adding a second PCI card for more real estate but finance's haven't
permitted the expense of the card and the monitors yet. Again, really nice
work.

As promised I have prepared a webpage illustrating the two routes for 2D
panels using the Parhelia - Please note that both require some work on
them. Where a Virtual cockpit is supplied with the aircraft, then that is
the preferred route: but this can be difficult in phases of flying such as
the landing where the instruments need to be scanned, operations by the
mouse needed as well as a good view outside where pheripheral vision is
valuable.

I would welcome any comments.
