Why so few monitors??

Lol first thing I thought of, 4/10, cool control panels, but not even a large curved display

Fuck curved display. You either build a dome or you have three large displays (TVs) arranged in a 270 degree square around you.

I'm going to take a guess that this sim setup is mainly for IFR or instrument flying. I know some people that do virtual airline stuff and they follow real life as closely as they can, so after taking off its auto-pilot on and using instruments for navigation instead of visual landmarks.
