Won't it be possible, to include in the Cockpit view parameters the additional parameters delay which gives the delay for 5g blackout and 9 g blackout ? and why not, if we want or not want, to have the Hud visible or not during blackout/redout ? That delay depends on the pilot :) (physical condition) Regards -- Gérard http://pagesperso-orange.fr/GRTux/ "J'ai décidé d'être heureux parce que c'est bon pour la santé.
