Hi PM,

Blimey! That is indeed a huge list of, errr, qualities

Many thanks for taking the time to write the comprehensive list ... mostly welcome! The "nasty" section would be funny if not tragic... In 15 days I will be starting my sim sessions and will keep some of those flaws in mind.

We have dual HGS on ours as a standard feature and hopefully it will help to make the overall experience better...

On a side note, I spoke to a friend, former Embraer engineering/tech rep guy, and he said that some behaviour/flaws/WTF moments, can be explained, according to Embraer lingo, with three basic (and evasive) answers:
1 - It is the system logic
2 - This is this way due to certification requirements
3 - That is a project's characteristic

Go figure

Cheers
BF
