I can confirm that the "VSPEED" display in the 737 PFD actually always shows the number "0" but I'd say this is still better than a fps display - at least for a real pilot. If the display sticks to 0 the pilot will realize very soon that it is broken, a display that shows totally incorrect numbers might hide a significant risk .... ;-) Cheers, Martin. -- Unix _IS_ user friendly - it's just selective about who its friends are ! -------------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
