[Flightgear-devel] 2D-Panel for 707
Hi all, just for your information. I'm still working on a 2D-panel for the 707: http://wunderhg.homepage.t-online.de/fgfs-screen-016.jpg In the next weeks, I will release a first version.

According to the buildings this must be Paris (find the large TV set right hand behind the turtle :-) I'm surprised to see such a panel layout - it's almost as flat and straight as your C172's are. Did the early airliners really have such a simple panel layout ?

Did the early airliners really have such a simple panel layout ? Cheers, Martin. I think he did it in a functional style like many of the old MSFS panels were as I remember. Parts of the side panel (flight ing) also integrated. You may hate this or love it. After my opinion the combination of a nice 3D-panel where you have all the things at the right place and the instruments in sight although you are not looking straight forward and a 2D working panel where you have all necessary information concentrated and readable is the best. The pros and cons of 3D panels with very small instruments have already been discussed in this forum, I don't want to get back again, but although I use a 19' display many instruments (ie. b1900, citation) are not readable without zooming onto them and that is sometimes a real pain if you are flying a more complicated approach. For that purpose a more composed 2D panel with big readable instruments and all necessary information needed is more functional than the 3D variant. If I am not wrong it is already possible to switch between the 3D panel and the 2D panel by the s key??? So you could choose what you want for every flight situation.
