    Agreed. But then I assume as a pilot, you at quite interested in calculating fuel burn rate and time to destination.
    All display of data should be visible with only eyeball movement to avoid heads down in the cockpit.

    No I'm totally serious. For once. I hate any dash layout that takes your eye more than a few degrees away from the driving sightline, or any controls that can't be operated by tactile feedback. This is why touchscreens are failing in cars.

    Ah, okay. Yes. I agree with you. I can operate my radio, climate controls, and all my lights without looking away from the road. But then to check the time, you have to completely move your head. It was a complete afterthought and could have been much better

    I hate the touchscreen centers/hubs in the center of the dash. So dangerous.

    It just needed to dry out.

    Thanks
    Thanks, my welding teacher would be pissed if I didn't make my welds pretty.

    Seems to be doing good by me :) I've been filling up there exclusively for over a month now, since prices are down. I am OK with $2.37/gal for now, but it was down in the low $2.20's for awhile.
