Do you prefer Glass or Analog instruments?

I've noticed that, too. Perhaps a bad example, but the HUD on the F-15C in LO:MAC has a sort of 'slider' which shows the air speed, and indeed how fast you're accelerating. Not a steam gauge, but the principle remains the same. Makes it much easier to quickly attain a speed and hold it, as you can anticipate how quickly/slowly you need to accelerate/decelerate. The Russian cockpits, on the other hand, are awful for that kind of thing. Only the digits are seen on the HUD, and they only change in multiples of 10. So, 120, 130, 140, etc. Very difficult when it comes to managing your precise speed.

Thats because you can't read anything other than multiples of ten when your pissed ha! :ernae:

(Just Joking before anyone jumps on my head lol!)

I love analog. Reminds me of the WWII planes flown by our brave army dudes! :salute: I like the glass cockpits, but they still haven't managed to overtake my love for analog cockpits!
