Does someone already fly with Flight Gear?

Yes, I've thought about what you suggest, as, I'm sure, have others. You'd want a small tablet PC strapped to your leg -- cockpits are very cramped, even in bizjets. You also need to think about the power supply.


Personally, even then, I don't think I'd want to be staring down into my lap during an approach in IMC (that's the only place that the synthetic vision is really necessary; otherwise, you'll usually be far above terrain at IFR altitudes, with very rare exceptions). I do think that tablet PCs will eventually push into this space somehow, though.


All the best,



David
