But it does nothing to lower the hourly running costs - which is what is needed.

How about mogas with 10% ethanol approval or if its run on unleaded fuel then it only needs a service every 100 hours. Or scrap the repack the wheel bearings with grease every 150 hours. or scrap the 150 hour check all together.

Glass might look nice but it won't fly any different and PPL training is all about looking out at setting the correct attitude.

If anything they should take out half the instruments that are installed.
