IF the HMDS was fragile we would have heard about it by now. There are concerns during catapulting that are being sorted. With new lightweight HMDS the pilot will carry a visor for day or night depending on situation to have only one visor fitted (a cockpit space for other visor needs to be found). Does the cockpit look roomy to you and have you any stories that indicate your worst HMDS fears? OMG the pilot is put in charge of a 100 million dollar airyplane - wot if he fckus up? 100 mil down the drain - wattle they think of next?
