all that screen real-estate and it's being used for a map that serves hardly any purpose while all engine data is on one side and incredibly small. Why is everyone adopting this really not so brilliant design. And we are in the 21st century. I don't think a full size yoke is exactly fitting any more.
The displays on aircraft usually are multifunction meaning you can usually have options what you want to display and how you want it to be display. I bet you can swap the instrument displays to be larger with just a button press But yeah the yoke is pretty stupid… there’s absolutely no reason why you needed a yoke with fly-by-wire. Its clunky, heavy, take up space, block the screen… its just stupid
@@tonamg53 I know that they are mfd but I hate the engine data being kind of taken away from one pilot and I just don't see a need for such a large map. This is why - from all the new cockpit display layouts - I still think the classic airbus layout is incredibly efficient and user friendly and even better still (apart from screen real estate) than the a350 layout. The a380 layout is genuinely the best configuration out there in my opinion. And then there's boeing who waste almost a quarter of each primary, not to mention the very poorly looking fmc; it looks like a cheap emulator tbh.
Yoke in 21st century? Yoke was designed like that so the pilot could use two hands to wrestle the aircraft when its get heavy as the controls are physically connected to the yoke. But fly-by-wire with a yoke? Just nah… don’t be Boeing.
@@muammargaddafi2740 It still has a FBW flight control right? So the yoke is just a joystick in the shape of a yoke. I don’t think its hard to redesign into a joystick shape and move it to the side. Don’t tell me its a 21st century aircraft without a FBW flight control 😅
@@tonamg53 Don't get me wrong, but since when is a defining factor of a quality and modern aicraft the necessity for fly by wire? Sure it certainly can save weight and enable easier control of heavier aicraft, but most of what a FBW system can offer a pilot in a civilian aircraft is mostly also achievable by other control augmentation systems. The reason why Dornier chose not to integrate a FBW system into the D328 most likely was the development cost and the technical risks caused by Dorniers complete lack of experience with FBW.
I think removing even more physical buttons is not good.
It could be a good choice, it looks like a lot of panels don't have anything on them yet, so I'd guess there's a lot still to come.
This is a pretty standard set of avionics for smaller aircraft.
This looks like a rendering rather than an actual product.

The thing is that the D328eco isn't a cleansheet design, but rather a modernized version of the discontinued Dornier 328.

@@tonamg53 Nope, the Dornier 328 never had FBW nor will the D328eco.
@@muammargaddafi2740 How is this a 21st century aircraft? 😂
Definitely blame marketing…
