Very nice. Can you explain what the E-scope is?

The E-Scope is one of the display modes for the Terrain Following Radar system. It displays a Zero Command line that is a distorted line showing the flight of the aircraft relitive to speed and altitude It also displays the ground ahead of the aircraft. This aids the pilot in avoiding the ground when flying low level. (200 to 1000 feet for TFR) <<u

Here is a Youtube link for a more detailed explaination

Update:

For the next version we have added a realistic TFR control panel that moves the TF altitude select setting from the altimeter to the TFR control panel. There is now a realistic selection of 200, 300, 400, 500, 750, and 1000ft.
Also added to the panel is the Ride selection switch. Settings are Soft, Medium, and Hard.

Select 200ft, Hard Ride, and hang on to your hat (and the stick) because it's going to get intense!!! :shock:
