You are 411A and I claim my 5 dollars...
Sorry, Cat, you lose.

In my view, the new glass panels actually has improved safety in GA airplanes, especially in some cases of nightime situational awareness....at least that is what my friends tell me that have 'converted'.

Now, having said this, would I convert my forty year old twin to glass...not likely, I like it just the way it is, with its forty year old airline radios (King Gold Crown) and all.

MY idea of a good glass cockpit is one with nice big windows
Likewise...and I've flown one for the last thirty years...TriStar.
