Description: This is part of a collection of profiles (A-10C, P-51D & Su-25T). The design principle is to be able to quickly switch from one aircraft to another. 
This is achieved by having the Left MFD as a base for all 3 profiles. When changing aircraft only the Right MFD printout needs to be swapped. This approach has lead to
some compromises and not all "Base" commands will work for all 3 aircraft.
