Well, all those GA glass cockpits, the G1000, Evolution 2000 etc, are the result of taking what people like about an airline cockpit and applying it to a GA cockpit.
Well the GA ones are hugely cluttered and not like the ones on an airliner, in my opinion. I dread the thought of having to navigate those in turbulence or at night but that's just an opinion. Maybe that is what is causing the problem.

I accept your comments about what is easier to read, after all you are speaking from expereince.

I regularly use the following types of air speed indicator. Which do you think I prefer, and why?
From what you have said it seems you prefer the round one with bugs - but that one is from a light twin , not from a jet , I think.
