We used to mechanical instruments when we learnt fly in school. Whether
it is habit we can not accept digital meters. For example quartz
crystal watch, we almost accept it now. There few people using
mechanical watch. I think it is developing direction for digital
meters.
I just wondered which kinds of digital meters, electric analog or
numeric meter, do pilot can accept. Or we can accept an electric analog
meter with digital number in it?


Personally, I'd go for an analog display digital.

It's a question of how easy it is to read, interpret and understand the
information that the meter is displaying

Raw numbers takes more time and thought.

Can you imagine trying to fly needle, ball, and airspeed with
numeric readouts?
