Virtual Cockpit and Instrument Panel
The cockpit of the Diamond Star DA40 has been reconstructed with extreme attention to accuracy. From the panel, to each gauge, to the bazels of the Garmin system to each engine control knob and also the sophisticated rudder pedals.
Soft Glow Cabin Illumination
A soft glow from all instruments that have illumination appears with a realistic resemblance, having a slightly shaded edge to each gauge and screen. Even the rocker switches are illuminated.
