Cockpit design requirements

I'm currently studying an MSc in avionic system design at Cranfield, with a focus on cockpit / flight deck design.

The first step is to gather top level system requirements, and as well as trawling through the EASA requirements there is an obvious need to gather input from the end user - pilots.

I'd be grateful for any input anyone cares to give, and if it could read along the lines of

"the cockpit shall..."

(ie. allow all emergency controls to be operated by either pilot whilst seated and with harness fastened.)

or "The display system shall..."

(ie. be readable in direct sunlight / be reconfigurable in case of failure etc)

Then so much the better.

Thanks in advance!
