What is the advantage of AviaOverhead?

[Lord Farringdon 491]

Hi Guys, 

Apologies for the dumb question, but what is the advantage of another screen with the Overhead panel on it. I mean, I have enough trouble bouncing around with the mouse on one screen, let alone trying to work two screens while flying. I can understand a touch screen since that does bring physical interactivity that doesn't require manipulating a mouse and I can understand the immersion factor appeal if the screen is actually mounted overhead. But without touchscreen and without overhead mounting are there any significant advantages to the users ability to control the airplane and concentrate more on flight with the avia Overhead app?

Dunna about screens, but I find having the overhead display remotely on my tablet saves changing views or moving my head on the PC.  If setting up pre-flight tend to do it on the PC, but if just tweaking a few switches mid flight very convenient to have it remote on the tablet.

I have my overhead mounted above my head on a 32inch touch screen, so its a huge advantage 🙂
