This looks to be built on top of the RECON JET 'HUD' which is shipping now for $599.

I see no net advantage to this in soaring and I have no interest to try it. But some digital natives might find it indispensable.

That said, I would be eager to try a full immersion synthetic vision VR application in a sailplane. Something based on Occulus Rift or similar that would make the fuselage completely disappear and let me see above, below and behind. Not sure how one would control the point of view because using head motion (like TrackIR) would not work very well in turbulence. Eye tracking might work. I would want to practice on the ground with a simulation of the actual terrain before going into the air. At some point in my future, I expect to turn the sailplane into a flower planter, then buy a nice recliner and VR rig with what I save from the fossil fuel budget.

That said, I do not volunteer to be the first lemming to jump off the cliff.. I can think of a few people to nominate for that honor, but I expect that they will step forward on the own.

Will we see another soaring pilot win the Darwin Award?
