Now if only SeeYou, flyWithCE, Glide Navigator II, or someone (Dave)
would make an app for this.

At 9.71 inches, this device seems a bit large for a glider cockpit.
I'm not even sure if it would work as a full MFD, replacing all the
instruments, assuming it could be certified in that role.
OTOH, the screen display technology, if applied to a somewhat smaller
display in the 4 x 6 inch format range, looks great
for bright sun viewing.

No problem with a 10 inch display - as long as it's thin and light.

Make a mount with a hinge at the top so it can be flipped up. Put a
full glass cockpit/glide computer display on it. If it fails, flip it
up to reveal the old "steam gauges" underneath. Take it out for the
annual.

There was a PW5 pilot that had that with a monster hang glider
instrument on top of this regular instruments.

I preffer the mix of steam and high tech.
