Rick's HS 748 Sun Visor

If everyone has already spotted this then apologies but I couldn't find a mention of it in the manual and it seems a really neat feature of Rick's 748. Since I only just found it by chance, I'll bet that others have missed it too.

In the VC, if you click at the top of the windscreen frame (left or right seat) you can pull down a sun visor.

Just the job at this time of year when the sun is so low in the sky!

It's a darned shame the Viking doesn't have one!! Coming into Northolt a few weeks back I lost sight of the runway due to sun glare (late afternoon/early evening.. low sun) and suffered a heavy landing :roll: Sun Glare is now switched off!! :lol:
