A panel critique thread in the RV-10 section has experienced some topic drift and someone suggested it not be buried in the RV-10 section. So I'll start the discussion here and we'll see where it goes. I'm afraid it may become yet another 'primer wars.'
I think everyone agrees that the PFD should be in front of the left seat, even if your panel mission is to have the plane flyable from both seats in a side-by-side config. The issue is where to place the MFD. The camps seem to be 1) a symmetrical layout (MFD in front of the right seat) and 2) a clustered layout (MFD right next to the PFD). Ready? Set. Go!
