Also, after having flown multiple aircraft with and without EICAS, I don't see what the big deal is. If you have a generator fail on a plane with EICAS you get a tone, a message, and then you run the GEN BUS 1 checklist. In a 737 you get a bright orange light, the 6 pack says ELEC, and after looking up to see the source off light illuminated, you simply run the source off checklist. Neither system is remotely unsafe or difficult to comprehend. What are we going to complain about next? Having to trim the aircraft due to airspeed changes when hand flying?
