In my case I a 3.5" screen is fine. I can just about get away with a 4.2" satnav provided it has reasonably a narrow bezel. A 5" screen hides too much of my control panel panel and, before you ask, the same would apply to most current phones. This picture which shows my navigation software running on a 3.5" Binatone: http://www.gregorie.org/gliding/libelle/FLARM_panel.jpg There is no way the PNA can be moved further to the right because it already touches the cockpit side and, as you can see, even a 4.2" display would be starting to hide the FLARM display and radio. -- martin@ | Martin Gregorie gregorie. | Essex, UK org |
