Went to the web site by removing the space in your post. Very impressive flight deck! I have some experience with Planeview from the G450/550, but without the Synthetic Vision update.

Please forgive the thread drift, but I am curious about the benefits of putting SV on the HUD. I liked knowing everything in the HUD was 'real life' info, versus the ND stuff being 'database'. The only advantage I can think of having SV on HUD is an instant verification of map shift if things don't line up. Anyone care to enlighten me?

The Global ergonomics do look better than the G birds. The third generation IR is pretty slick as well. I guess G decided a common type rating was worth the lack of ergonomic updating.
