Sometimes when just cruising, the speed stops displaying on the HUD, and instead displays on the targeting scope. What's up with that, and how can I stop it?

That happens when you go into "tactical mode" (for the lack of a more precise term), which occurs when you uncage the SHKVAL or select a weapons station.

Just hit the reset button on the targeting panel (the panel on the left just aft of the VHF-2 console) to get your full HUD back.

The average naval aviator, despite the sometimes swaggering exterior, is very much capable of such feelings as love, affection, intimacy, and caring. These feelings just don't involve anyone else.

They aren't even the same speed anyway. One is airspeed and the other is the ground-Doppler (INS?) speed.

Cheers! The strange thing though is that it happened without uncaging or selecting a weapon, but I suppose that the reset button should fix it nonetheless if it happens again.
