Post Instrument Glass?
Hi gents, reference the instruments, particularily the PFD & ND will the glass be gloss, ie, reflections as like some add-ons, looking at various real world images,the first thing that seems to hit you is the large amounts of shiny reflective glass. What do you reckon?.... not many add-ons use shiny glass most possibly to preserve fps..is this the reason....and thus making the PFD etc look fake. I think gloss/reflections makes a huge contribution to realism and 3D depth assistance & perception, after all one spends alot of time with these two panels in flight, so why not make them as real as they get.....just a thought :D
