Its not the avionics but the actual instrument positions that change. In some cases its no big deal, but sometimes it is enough to be frustrating. Especially if I schedule more than one lesson in a day (which is frequently the case) and I have to use a different airplane. Its probably not a big deal but I was curious what other people's experiences were. So thanks!!
Just takes practice and patience. One thing I've always noticed is most students tend to focus too long on any given instrument. Really try to see/interpret an instrument in 1-second or less, and move on to the next in your pattern. Also know when to omit a certain gauge because it currently isn't the primary for your given action.
Partial Panel work can really strengthen your skill level when using secondary instruments for primary actions, or reinforce the primarys without the supplemental secondary information.
If you are noticing a common trend in your mistakes as well as what you do right, hopefully you and your CFI can build a plan of action off of that to improve your training.
