Default Glass cockpit hard to read

An analogue display cuts the left hand side out of the loop and enables
the calcualtion rate to increase the right sides "frame rate" so that

Caorse rule of thumb math can be laid over this for descent angles,
interceptin angles and wo on, but generally, the fewer numbers involved,
the better.
People who prefer the numbers usualy don't fly very well at all.



Bless you, my boy.

I thought the reason I hated the tapes was that I'm just an old fogie. Now I
know it's because I'm a natural!

Most gratifying news.
