Re: BYOD?

I wonder if pilots would like it if plane manufacturers added flight calculators and manuals to built in cockpit controls

No, absolutely not.

Aircraft can be expected to last a good 30-40 years. Can you imagine the hellish device they would have made 40 years ago for htis sort of thing? Flight aids are cheap and easily replaced; they do not constitute avionics.
