Title: Flight Bags?
Post by boeing247 on Feb 27^th, 2011 at 8:31am

Not many addon aircraft have electronic flight bags or optional HUDs in jetliners. I think that CS should add these features when they do more modern jetliners. :)

Not many airliners have a HUD. The 737-900 does, like in a car (projects onto windshield). The 787 has one like a fighter jet, but its retractable. The A350 will too. As flight bags, I'm glad they don't, another glitch to have. I have my own paper flight bags, and approach charts from Delta.

Good point about he glitching. I really just meant flight bags that don't do anything, but are there to look at. While not many airliners generally have HUDs, I think that Boeing has made them optional on many... I could be wrong, though. :-?

I dunno, not the 747-8, teh 737-900 does, I dunno about the -700. But yes, I love my paper ones, they work great, NEVER glitch and I can put them on my desk, or lap. Not a screen! I jsut got the A2A Spitfire, and it is awesome!
