Avoiding fancy-pants glass panels may extend his life a bit more but it is not going to save him. The answer to G1000 reliability concerns isn't to stick with ancient instruments, it's to maintain your necessary ability to fly safely on backups. As the readers of this group know, I had an instrument failure a few weeks ago. It wasn't due to fancy computer-driven avionics, but rather a simple, foolish assembly mistake. Combined with other factors it resulted in a very exciting landing, but thanks to my training I had a successful outcome. Pilots must train for equipment outages and they do train for equipment outages. Some may not, but the answer that is to start training for them, not to avoid computerized avionics. -- Mike Ash Radio Free Earth Broadcasting from our climate-controlled studios deep inside the Moon |

Any real pilot would agree with you- remember these responses are due to
Anthony's trolling, and nothing more. We also know he is not a pilot and has never flown, so he is simply looking for attention again. |
