I am certainly generalizing, here, but I think my point is clear
Couldn't have said it better myself!!! It is up to the instructors to teach these folks how to keep their head OUTSIDE of the cockpit, and off those gee-whiz-bang avionics they have.(I am a big fan of the G1000 though, especially in the TBM850's with the wide-screen MFD w/ keypad!!!)
