Glass Panel Scan?
I have never (yet) flown in a GA airplane with a flat panel PFD/MFD. I'll bet many in this forum have not either - but we all will very soon, because the proliferation of such systems has far outpaced even the most optimistic anticipations of only a short time ago. It has also outpaced the tradition accrual of collective experience, with the gradual adoption of newer technology. While the overall improvement in situational awareness with such systems appears incontestable, I wonder if anyone is concerned about a risk of degraded scan technique while staring at a single flat panel for most of our information. Isn't there a risk of a "glassy-eyed" stare - particularly when we're a bit tired - slowing or degrading the learned uptake and processing of information? G Faris |
