Oli, can the focus of the display be adjusted?

I currently wear progressive bifocal glasses, but usually wear contacts for flight ops. The contacts give me excellent distance correction, but no correction for close up work (I wear 2x readers for pit work when wearing the contacts.)

Thanks,
...jim

Hello Jim.
The focus is adjusted by moving the screen aft or fore. Because of the nature of the near eye display, the focal angle is very wide and focus range moves very fast.
However, it certainly does not cover all the cases.
I would suggest that you try the device if you are interested in the technique.

We will have a few on test at Jets Over Kentucky.
Otherwise, you should be able to test the device in Canada since Recon Instrument is in Vancouver.
