[time-nuts] NOOB Q re LH

Many years ago, an acquaintance tried to sell me his Ercoupe airplane.
We went up for a test drive. He gave me the yoke and began pointing out
the meaning of all the gauges. I looked up from that and saw that we
weren't horizontal. I experienced information overload for the first
time, and decided that I wasn't meant to fly small aircraft.
 
I get the same feeling looking at the Lady Heather screens that have
appeared in this list. There is an information density that begs for a
VR display, and even then it would take more years than I've got left to
become comfortable with it.

This is no criticism of Mark Sim's work. It tells you all you ought to
know. I just have trouble assimilating it.

Good luck.

Hi Folks,

Great list...I'm learning a lot. Could I trouble you for suggested
readings on the display content and interpretation from Lady Heather?

Yes, I've read the PDF and the lines of code....and studied the websites
of leapsecond.com, KO4BB.com, and the Dec 2014 thread on the time-nuts
archive which basically asked this same Q. Any updates to that answer
which was basically....read a bunch of stuff and figure it out? I can do
that but thought I'd politely as the listserv once again.
