I'm sure the 7x is a fine a/c, but it sounds like it's having teething pains from being the"A" model. I've never heard a G-V/550 crew complain about their bird openly.....not to say it hasn't happened.
Carry on...
Every new aircraft has it's glitches that needs to be ironed out. G150 has the proline 21 system that's been around for years and it's been known for having to "reboot" or make a dark aircraft on occasion. But it's still a great airplane.
