This application which gives the iPhone a set of instruments and using the built-in GPS and accelerometer displays your actual movements. When driving the HUD displays your actual speed, heading etc.
Displays can also be enlarged. Also, can have the x axis reversed so that the iphone can be put on the car dashboard and you see the images as a HUD on your windscreen. That bit sounded cool, but around town there was too much outside light.
Also includes a background soundtrack of aircraft noise, ATC/radio chatter and aircraft warnings. I got quite a shock as I went down hill towards a round about and coughing Betty told me to 'pull up...pull up".
Also, display can go into a night mode for easier reading at night.
Recommend this ~$3 app to any aviation enthusiast.
