Out of interest, why would you want a 2D panel when you are being given such a perfect (and very FPS friendly) VC? I have never understood how people can even fly GA aircraft from the 2D view! Its all about visual reference, which can only be gained from a VC viewpoint

I feel more at home in the 2D panel. Plus, the screen's flat so it's not as if you get a "proper" 3D reference. And no matter how zoomed in the VC is the gauges still have less detail than those of the 2D panel.
But mostly, it's because I'm using a small screen so things are hard to see in the VC. Oh, and framerates can be a problem in FSX if I'm using autogen (even a great VC will undoubtedly have lower FPS than a 2D panel), which I certainly will have to if I'm using GA aircraft. Don't get me wrong, the VC can be great, but 99% of my cockpit time is in the 2D view. It sure looks like a great add-on though |

Looks a great add-on! I agree TrackIR is just amazing. I don't know what I would have done without it!
