Are you f-ing serious?!?! This NG package is the WORST EFIS I've ever seen! I thought only SWA had it, and now I hear even they don't use it anymore. I prefer the -500 half-a$$ glass over this crap. At least it has a speed tape, for God's sake.

I actually had a training captain (can't remember what you guys call it - the guy who gave us our check at the end of training) tell me this was "the most advanced cockpit other than the 787". He IMMEDIATELY lost any and all credibility he might have had when he uttered those words.

I still can't imagine anyone with a brain buying new airplanes and then turning the EFIS into steam gauges. I for one can't wait to get out of this little POS.

JMHO
