Hardware for MFDs etc?

[Father Cool]

So when we eventually get this what are the none VR guys doing for MFD's? The Typhoon has more buttons on the screens than say an F18 or F15?

winwing MFD's have a "hidden" black button between each pair of grey buttons, meaning they have up to 9 buttons a side...

Its not thaat many anyways, 6 on either side, 5 on the bottom and none at the top.

Plus, you can do most stuff through the X/Y cursor instead of hitting buttons.

The trickier bit is the contextual labels which are on the buttons rather than on the screens.
