Gums, needle ball and airspeed and a standby gyro would do nicely if only the Airbus had them. EVERY thing you mention is computer generated on the Bus. At least they are on the A320. Once you...

Dozy asks about ergo issues. Maybe ergo wasn't the correct term, but I'm speaking of a cluttered flight instrument display, tapes instead of dials for speed/altitude/vertical speed, attention...
