Colored altimeter bugs

Altitude Bugs
Altitude Alert Indicator marks critical altitude levels so they can be
maintained by quick visual reference. In the track are three tabs that
move simultaneously: green tab points to 500' above DH or MDA, yellow
tab points from 200' to 100' above minimums and red tab is placed at DH
or MDA. An added safety margin for approaches, it will also help sharpen
your skills. Altitude Alert Indicator 2 7/8" dia.

Mystery solved! Thanks! Odd that Reality XP includes this since it
apparently isn't part of the instrument itself. In any case, I found out how
to turn it off.

Actually, I've learned from the Reality XP forum that this was a special for
Dreamfleet's Piper Dakota instrument panel, and once it was in, they decided
to leave it as an option for the instrument in case anyone else wanted it.
Once again, a Reality XP instrument turns out to behave just like the real
thing.

We’re supposed to let that pass?
The fact that a simulated instrument has keystroke support for those Sporty’s
stick-on bugs (that no one uses) is good enough to claim that the virtual
instrument *behaves like* the real thing? Is that the take-home on this? I
say you’re missing something. You can put those stick-ons on your bathroom
mirror and it still won’t fly. Unless and until your desk chair has keystroke
support for those Sporty’s sheepskin seat covers you’re not *really* flying!
