A lot of the discussion here revolves around the crew's inability to see the instruments/radios.

Would a head-mounted display not go some way to solve that issue? You could have all the vital information displayed in there.

Admittedly, you still have to find the buttons/switches in the cockpit to make any changes or adjustments, but at the very least you are not blind.

Taking this a step further, it should be possible to generate a 'virtual' view of the entire cockpit displayed in these goggles, thus giving the crew a fighting chance.
