Is there a way to have a lower monitor for just the gauges and an upper monitor for the outside views? Got a basic simpit setup and want to get the TrackIR to do its thing on a main monitor at eye level. Want the gauges to be on the dash but non moving when I turn my head. Is this a pipedream or is there something I'm overlooking?

I think it would be possible through software recently announced on this UBB. It would let you configure two displays as one and then all you'd need is to flip the view and set the monitors sideways on top of eachothers.

james, I know that you can do what you want in MSFS, but I don't know if it can be done in AH. To do it in FS you have to open the gauges in another window and move that window to your second monitor iirc. Something I don't think you can do in AH.
I think you can do a set up like MrRipley is talking about but I believe the views will be slaved together, moving together as you move your view around.
