Huh?


One problem, too much head in the
cockpit. There is a lot to look at and comprehend. Very different from
flying steam gauges.


Sorry, John, but too much head in the cockpit can be bad, even dangerous
under some circumstances. Not to worry, though, as it is much less of a
threat now than in the good old days.

Or were you inquiring about the meaning of the term, "steam gauges" (the
round analog instruments) as opposed to "glass" (the digital CRT and
flat-panel displays)?
