They should change them. Tape-style EFIS is so much easier. I fly both EFIS, and steam gauges, and the transition between the two is a non-event.
Its an FAA thing (I think).
Since our -300's are completely round dials and our 73 pilots fly all equipment types (some times in the same pairing) the old style presentation is required. The -500's have a speed tape on the ADI so I guess the FAA thinking is that's ok to go back and forth from that to full tapes but not to the pure round dials.
The tapes are nice and give more info so it will be nice if they ever swap 'em. (and nice to get rid of the -300's too) (one reason I will hate to leave the 75/76 fleet to upgrade)
