How is the glass cockpit learning curve progressing?


Nicely. Once you get used to where the buttons are and what they do, the fog
really starts to lift.

Other people have said the things can be a hazard in VMC because there's so
much to play with that you keep your head down too much. I have definitely
found this to be true. Saturday, while fiddling with the MFD, I flew right
through the approach path to an uncontrolled airport before I realized what I
was doing. Very bad!! So now I'm concentrating on keeping my VMC scan
outside where it belongs, especially at low altitude.
