Nah, I prefer the 270 degrees of view with TIR

The monitors are 22" already, 24" wouldn't add much...

yeah - I imagine that sitting in close, the view out of your peripheral would be acceptable....however - I agree with BC and would far rather have my widescreen and TIR....

wasn't that triple monitor majigger developed before the head tracking and widescreens were invented?

and dude - those square biegetone boxes look old like the telegraph anymore....no offense.

have you tried a true widescreen setup yet?

Hey Vigilant, what kind of joystick is that? Who makes it? Is it force feedback? Thanks in advance!

It's a french company, they blew away me with what they have planned. You must see it for yourself - address is http://tarmac-aces.com/ (admins if website not permitted please remove it )

But yes, you'll be flying with your arm instead of your wrist, as pilots of the era did, that's why it's so exciting!

Another navigation question:

Will we have variation and deviation modelled?

Honestly, how do you define expensive by the way? Everyhing ought to be weighted what it costs against what it does. What it's worth to sit in Bf109 cockpit while flying? Priceless. What it's worth to just focus on the monitor, grab the stick and feel you do the same? A lot. Hmmm...

Best!

Well, I think 1.000 $ for a Stick is expensive.
