Don't worry because as soon as you turn on the battery big round dials appear. Not a strip gauge in sight. It's like a glass cockpit but ....

Apparently Sikorsky did their market research in the Gulf of Mexico by asking a bunch of Vietnam veterans what they wanted on the display and the answer was "big round dials please" and that's what we got.

Not as clutter free as a 225 as a result sadly.
