Default Glass Panel Training
In article ,

That doesn't make any sense. Why would a newbie pilot need to
transition from anything? I've never transitioned a pilot from glass
to steam (doesn't happen very often) but I would imagine that it would
be difficult. The glass takes a lot of the "scan and interpret" away
from the flying duties. Going back to steam means that you need to
look at several instruments and develop a mental picture of what is
happening.

My thoughts exactly.
Without supporting documentation from the original author, we have to take this
as a flippant affirmation. . .
