It has little to do with being macho and everything to do with instrument proficiency. The Beech doesn't have all the new moving map GPS equipment you speak of. You have to get by using an HSI and an RMI. If you are unable to do that, then you cannot perform the job. Sorry if you think your ego is being challenged, but GLA must have its pilots capable of flying in the conditions you mentioned because those are the conditions that actually do exist on a daily basis save the single engine.
