[simpits-tech] F-16 MFD bezels...and Square displays

[Gene Buckle]

Chances are small they'll be affordable.  Companies that build flight
certifiable systems have *hundreds* of regulations to follow when
manufacturing things.  They must carry large liability insurance policies
as well.  The end result is gear that only corporate customers can afford
it.  Certifiable gear is VERY expensive.  A 2" backup ADI from Malwin
Electronics (a builder of purpose-built simulator avionics) will set you
back $5,000.00.  A full size flight director (again, not for flight use)
can be as much as $30k.

A 1:1 aspect ratio screen would be great, but I don't think you'll find
one for a price you can afford.
