When I flew the 300 it hurt my knees going around the pod & feet close
together in the nose.
Combined with the excellent view, I had always wanted to ELIMINATE the
instrument pod & use 2" instruments mounted along the sides below the
frame rails.

I think it would be awsome to have the unrestricted view & the legroom.

Who says we need an instrument panel in our faces? we're VFR !
Not that I expect anyone to do it, but if I had owned the 300, I would
have.
