That's not to say it would A be possible or B do we want it, It is ATM just a thought bubble as I do know who could design it and make it. I worked with him with the Delta D2 project with a glass cockpit before a glass cockpit even existed.
my eyes are outside and mostly rely on flying by senses with occasional scan of the instruments to assure everything is ok. i see where you are coming from with it making a scan nicer, but i like to fly in all sorts of lighting conditions and with rain on the windscreen, one less thing in the windscreen would be for the better,
the only reason i like the compass front and center is as a reference for centerline trim and pitch attitude against the horizon.
i'm also a steam gauge guy all the way! so maybe an MGL ipad flyer will be a sure buy in!
