Any ideas about the best way to transition to the G1000 on a type you are already familiar with (e.g. C172)? An instructor told me that 30-60mins instruction would be sufficient. I am a PPL holder.

Is there a free G1000 simulator and notes that can be downloaded - anyone know?

Many thanks.

PS> I have heard mixed reviews about the G1000, so anyone who has flown with one, please provide your opinions. I know its standard equipment on the C172 these days, so there will prob. be no escaping it in the future.
