Glass big learning curve?
I don't currently fly, haven't in a long time, and was a student when I did;
so I had started to wonder whether it was just me, or whether others also
found the altimeters in the some of the glass panels to be non-intuitive.
I really thought that the airspeed indicators were non-intuitive as well,
but that seemed far less problematic--at least for VMC.
I've flown glass once, and I found the gauges to be non-intuitive and
hard to use. For one thing, they are of different sizes, so one can't
at a glance see what fraction of "full" you are at, like you can with a
round airspeed gauge. I much prefer a round gauge.
