We are fully intending to do the HUD btw guys. It will work in the VC too, which will be an FS first.

Excellent!!! :D

This is going to be blast practicing flying like Southwest does - no autothrottle and hand flying all the way down to Cat.IIIa with the HUD. :-eekMichael J.http://img142.imageshack.us/img142/9320/apollo17vf7.jpg

After reading this, I wanted to quote a line from Top Gun:"They must be close, I'm getting a ha**-on"....awesome guys!

The HUD is there to upgrade a Category II aircraft to Category III, not as a toy.Quote:Yes we pilots love toys! Michael Pare.

Michael Pare.Well, I consider in-car GPS systems "toys" too so the HUD in FS and in real life is pretty much a "toy" since it's not mandatory :) although as far as I'm concerned it's going to be a useful tool on visual approaches since there are no or very little landmarks in FS, that's mainly what I'm going to use it for.As for CAT3 approaches, it's not required, it doesn't exist in the majority of the 737's which are CAT3 approved.
