Hi there, I was curious to know what these abbreviations mean? AGL, BGL, HUD, MFD? I think those are the one’s that I would like to know about…Any help is greatly appreciated. TIA

Been in aviation for 40+ years and have never seen a reference to BGL. Any idea where this is used in the sim?

BGL is a file type in flight sim…
It originally goes back to Bruce Artwick Organization (BAO – Which is the company that developed the original Flight sim that MS later bought and grew up to be the very one you play today).
BGL is BAO Graphical Language.
And while BGL might also mean ‘Below Ground Level’ in some field (well digging? Undertaking?) it is most certainly not an aviation term in that regard as @Part121 also pointed out above.
