NAV-GPS
-------

Baron DG
--------

Modified Baron HSI with ILS VOR GS removed to create a Directional Gyro, the "PUSH" knob is non-functional.


Altimeter sub-scale
-------------------

The sub-scale is hard to read, pressing 'b' will set the QNH to the local setting.


Instrument Lighting Issues
--------------------------

The color of some gauges will only match the other instruments for Day or Night, at Dusk or Dawn you will see a slight difference, nothing much can be done about this.


Virtual Cockpit gauges
----------------------

The round Directional Gyro does not have a heading bug knob, although the heading bug still works via the keyboard.
To render this gauge properly given the limitations of the Virtual Cockpit required removal of the heading bug knob.
