Hi is there any plan that they will create a 2D panel for this beautiful bird. Its been almost a month now I'm still learning how to fly this thing using the 3D cockpit and it's been difficult for me to switch in 3D cockpit since i prefer flying with 2D panel.

Apparently 2D panels are dead and you need to "move with the times" despite the fact that this has been a popular request but one that will be ignored. Get EZDOK and then you can set up your own views as 2D panels.

Yes, EzDok does work with P3d.  An invaluable add-on.
 I've set up various views for the F27, so, with the flick of the hat-switch I can move between views in an instant. The three most used are a normal out-the-front cockpit view, an auto pilot panel view and an IFR panel.
Agree with Cowpatz, 2D panels are dead, I mean, real pilots don't have a popup panel, they look around the cockpit :-)   EzDok provides this facility

No you don't agree with Cowpatz. I love 2D panels. They are great for those of us who like systems as much as the general flying. It is the eye candy brigade who are pushing the VC only option.
Check out this video and you will be sold on EZDOK and yes it works great in P3D (even 2.5).

Ok i really tried to fly with the 3D cockpit but i really don't like it, so i manage to install a 2d panel but the problem im facing is when turning during taxi its so difficult to turn around. Is there anything i can modify in contact points to make it easier to turn? Thanks

Taxy at a much slower speed and also use differential brakes and power... It steers absolutely fine.

Hi Chris
which 2d panel have you installed? Built by yourself? If I give you my email can you send it to me just to try and take a look on it?
Tnks and cheers

Thank you very much, I will test it too.
Cheers

Please one help for Ezdok: somebody having already the config for this kind of plane?
Is it better to have a shortcut for keyboards or joistick?

Manual, Page 40. Ermm

Why do people persist in not reading the fine manual?
