Ducks trout!!!

Bummer that my MFD excitement was premature, though.  OIR and FV are
vaporware for good reason, IMHO.  SP4 is still pending but due soon, and of
course, we now have the new kids on the block.  Why spend money on
development when so many are still working so hard to keep life in the
current platform?  F4 is the B-52 of flight sims.
