Instruments and Controls
2D Panel Navigation
One of the great features of this release is the intuitive interface. All pop-up windows, and view
options are programmed and displayed in a logical fashion, and therefore little explanation is
required in order for the user to be able to use each feature of the aircrafts panel system.
Having said that, we’ll explain all the main features of the panel navigation system, as well as
instrument / control operation where required.
Switching Views
Possibly the most used switching option is the VFR / IFR view toggle. Upon loading, the
aircraft will display the 2D IFR Panel by default. This is perfect for performing the required
checks, and tuning of instruments. But when it comes time to do the real flying (takeoff and
landing) you’ll want a good view of the outside world. Simply click on the dashboard to swap to
& from IFR or VFR view. A large invisible spot has been created to allow quick and easy
access to this trigger. So when the pressure is on, you wont be looking for a small icon or
trying to manage difficult keystroke combinations.
To switch between IFR / VFR
views, click on the dash area.
