2nd monitor A REAR VIEW MIRROR
« on: March 28, 2015, 01:43:32 PM »
  Ok one of the major complaints in Aces High, "no one gave me a check six!!!".  So folks,....  is it possible to add a 2nd monitor to use as a, "rear view mirror", set to rear head view. In other words, fly with the main monitor, and having a second monitor off to the side viewing rear position only.

Snap views can give you what you want, just as fast as glancing at a second monitor. 

Even if you got your wish, you'd still have to check your own six.  :D

Actually a mirror would alert the periferal vision for movement, snap view doesn't do that.

Get better SA.   Whiners will always find something else to whine about.
