The only thing that I flew with an F/E had ignition analysers for the 112 spark plugs, oil transfer pumps and two speed superchargers. You can imagine the meal those guys made of that! That was in the days of smoking cockpits and girlie magazines, both of which were mandatory according to the F/E.
I am pretty happy with an EICAS, and thrilled to leave my sextant at home, too.
