RFC: Making Sim Life Easy, is this going too far?

Hi,

Been busy with LUA and its possibilties, trying out the GUI possiblities and while experimenting I came up with this.

It is, or can be, very handy of course. It is easy to just type in the frequencies, and, you can prepare a flight, so you have frequencies you probably encounter available with a click or 2.

But, it is not simulating the aircraft anymore, it is adding usability to the flight simulator.

Would you use something like this, or is this going too far in making sim life easy?

It doesn’t make the sim too easy. In real life there’s a second pilot making the changes. He also has big tactile knobs and big legible displays.

In the sim, one pilot has to do everything, and unless he spends megabucks on an external radio panel or a home cockpit, he has the added handicap of trying to click a tiny click spot on a screen.
