> but works with gloves?
I bet Lockheed Martin sells a $50K glove that works with the F-35 touchscreens.
It's not that bad, however. In a car you need to be constantly aware of the road ahead of you. On a plane, you are not required to have your hands on the controls while on autopilot and you can pay attention to the screens, as well as operate them - there won't be any wildlife crossing ahead of you, not any red lights forcing you to brake.
And if the plane sees a threat it will warn you well before your human senses can so you can pay full attention to it (and the helmet-mounted displays). I assume the F-35 also has stick-mounted controls to operate in the helmet display.
