Which one are you referring to?

I'm disparaging the #1 radar display, of course. The one where a) you
have to squint in order to read the scale, the relative altitude and
climb rate, b) you have to scroll through the targets in order to
decide which target you want relative alt and climb rate info for. We
are doing a somewhat better job of displaying the same raw data with
ClearNav (2.2.0.38 should be available for public beta testing very
shortly) but I think your eyeballs are better employed looking out the
window.

Pretty much everyone likes the #2 collision warning display, which is
fast, effective and intuitive.
