For the 180 I've seen examples of both "1/2-1/2" and "2/3-1/3". With the added availability of the HSI/DG now is there the possibility to have a "1/3-1/3-1/3" screen?
We might add CDI and GS indicators on the EFIS screen, but probably not a full HSI overlay. We're not big fans of an HSI overlaid on the EFIS screen because of how visually noisy it becomes, and the interaction between the DG and the horizon can be really distracting. We can be convinced, so feel free to argue otherwise, but very few EFIS manufacturers do this and with good reason we believe.
We're aware that you have to make tradeoffs on the D180 on what you can show at one time. At some point you just need more screen real estate to put more on there safely and efficiently. That's why we support a D100 and D120 networked together and showing what you want on any screen. That combo gets you lots of screen area at a price that is still less than almost every EMS/EFIS combo competitor.
