@Wirbelsturm, thank you sir.

i'm not really concerned about transition from dials to glass. actually, a few days ago, an upcoming local airline advertised vacancies for pilots, and they wrote :

"Candidates having glass cockpit experience will be preferred"

so i thought that glass cockpit experience must be really valuable for airlines these days. if it is not, then i'd rather fly the IL. at least i will get heavy multi-engine jet experience which may come in handy in future. and besides, it'll be the IL again on which i'll get the most flying hours. both Phenom-100 and Saab 2000 dont fly as much as the IL does.

a few years on the IL and then i'll retire from the air force.
