Now wouldn’t it be cool if….

While parked, the rain sensor would close windows and sunroof if needed. I thought of this while running outside in a driving rain to do the same!

And, while Im talking about rain, wouldn’t it be cool if we had live weather and radar on the NAV screen? It is entirely possible...if and when we get satellite radio… I know that here in the States both satellite radio broadcasters do offer this service with certain high end avionics packages. I have one in my King Air through SIRIUS/WSI. If pilots are seeing live radar that is being beamed down, we should too!!! It can't be too hard to offer in future hardware setups

But, I know that this is just a dream.. Id just be happy with MP3 tags on the radio display!

Yeah, dream on. I'm personally not a huge fan of feature bloat, but I guess it's unavoidable...

I wouldn't expect "auto-close" windows or sunroof ever... too much risk of possibly injury. Even on our Audi, where I can close all Windows & the Sunroof from the driver side key lock... it forces me to hold the key in position until they all close to prevent accidental use.
