Any corporate guys still flying analogs?

[Ernest T. Bass]

All of our aircraft are equipped with XM weather and are TLAR approach capable.

I fly a steam gauge Learjet and have flown a little glass and I would rather be in the Lear when the goin gets rough. Just my opinion though.

King... so the Lear 35s are still steam huh? Sweet!

I agree with your statement. Analogs tend to put hair on chest anyway...

I have been using glass since I stepped out of the FK-28 in 2000.....I really miss the ol' LR-35....the Porsche of flying. There is just something about shooting an approach and nailing crossing restrictions and configuring the aircraft to be at the FAF with 10 seconds to spare after the "Langing Check" is complete without having the aid of the "bananna" to tell you when/where you will be level....I wonder if I could do it now?

A-MEN, Dinger!

Now back to my advanced "state of the art" 1980s 4-tube EFIS studying.

used to fly a fleet of hawker 700's all analog, they did have dual fms and a mfd in the middle but that was it

I fly 35's and 55's, all steam.
I just finished 850xp School and I looked like an idiot. Too much information being blasted to my noggin. The instructor kept yelling at me because I was continually hand flying.
