Airbus plans virtual cockpit experience

As others have said, sounds like a logical progression to merge the outside views available today to passengers along with position/speed/height data that is on many IFE systems. Not sure what the fuss is all about to be honest - instead of two places to get the information, merges it into one and provides a bit more of an immersive experience. 

If the airlines can figure out how to charge a few dollars for the privilege of watching, I'm sure they'll be all over it...
