Glass Cockpit

One of the things I really like about being a CFI at Westwind in Phoenix is that they have their Cessnas equipped with the G1000.  So much prettier than the round gauges I learned on, as you can see.  Obviously round gauges were more difficult to learn on.  The G1000 just has so much information available.  You practically have to try to lose your situational awareness; whereas, you have to work really hard to know where you are at all times when flying under the hood.  I do appreciate that I learned without it though!
