HUD = Good, now shut it off!
Concerning the HUD (Heads Up Display)
The display system shall have a means of turning the display completely off without taking your hands off the throttles and/or tiller.
Immediately following a normal evening/night landing the information lit up in the HUD has very little relevance, it’s done the work assigned and played its part, but now it clutters up and competes with the runway, taxiway, and signage lighting on the airport’s surface.
I want to completely clear the display without taking my eyes off where the jet is headed. I don’t want to look down for the “clear” button. It would be a much better design if I could turn it off with a tiller, left horn of the yoke or throttle button.
