''In the following text "CRJ700" includes also CRJ900 and CRJ1000 unless noted otherwise as those basically share the same cockpit.''

On the pedestal panel (not on the picture) there is a source selector panel to switch display functions in case of a CRT fault or certain other system faults. This is not (yet) implemented in FG CRJ700 family but probably it can be easily done once we have a canvas implementation for all displays.

== MFD (Multi Function Display) ==
The MFD contains functions like navigation, HSI, TCAS, weather radar, flight plan. Pilot and copilot side MFD are independent and can be contolled via the side panel.
(FIXME: picture of side panel)
Control selections
* MFD format selection
* Bearing pointer selection
* Navigation source selection
* Cross side navigation data and course display
With the ''FORMAT'' knob on the side panel the following formats can be selected:
* HSI compass
* Navaid sector map
* TCAS
* FMS present position map
* FMS plan map
* Weather radar
(FIXME: add screenshots of old implementation here)
