Mike, #2580, et al,
Mark on this instrument the AoA value as reported for the Lion accident; change seats, mark your new instrument similarly.
Which way should you move the stick according to the display - whose display, who holds the stick.
Actually what is required is to hold the stick centrally, against an unexpected and unexplained increasing nose down trim force.
Would these ‘new’ optional displays help with this situation - after what training, for what scenarios. Or are they just another distraction, requiring comprehension by a ‘surprised mind’ already challenged by the need to control the aircraft.

P.S. which other flight instrument parameter would be closely associated with AoA. Airspeed, particularly as this scale has an AoA derived low speed awareness cue.
So why would we expect an AoA dial to be positioned nearer the altitude display?
PPS. The EFIS location and dial format might be better used to display pitch trim
position.
An ill-conceived thought, with trim in mind, cf # 2585
