likewise the Typhoon Cockpit Ergonomics have been a concept from the late 70s early 80s, everything down to colour, size and shape have followed a strict display philosophy, the layout and lighting systems have taken the cockpit to a whole new dimension, one of the only cockpits to reject glaresheild blinds (data entry interference) and use stray light technology down the nth degree to minimise canopy and windscreen reflections, again the only cockpit to use programmable softkeys on MHDDs that give the operator a direct input, reducing the need to select from on-screen menus, DVI, huge HOTAS functionality, and a widescreen class 1 HUD...........a truly great cockpit
