• Is it optinal to have analog gauges instead in newer airplanes or we have no choice?

• What if the aforementioned part of the G-1000 and the backup dial gauge both simultaneously fail?

• Can a woman be a pilot?

• Maybe I'm a little old-fashioned, but I prefer the steam gauges over the G1000 and other systems.  Even though I've yet to go through flight school, I do have an understanding of the systems because I was involved in submarine navigation in the US Navy, and in addition to using paper charts, we also used a VMS – Voyage Management System, which in a lot of ways, is similar to the G1000 and other systems.  Like the G1000 and others, the VMS is capable of accomplishing a lot at once, but in my opinion, this can actually complicate things.  A serious issue I have regarding the G1000 and other systems is the tendency for the pilot to become too focused on the screens, and not enough time spent looking outside.  With all the features and capabilities of the G1000 and other systems, a pilot could in theory suffer from information overload.  This was true from my perspective whenever I used the VMS.  The big difference, however, was unlike an airplane, you're never alone on a submarine, and if you start to lose focus, you have other navigation personnel to help you get your mind back on track.  Another issue I have with the G1000 and other systems, is these systems are too computerized, and can result in a pilot becoming complacent with piloting skills.  For these reasons, I believe it's imperative for pilots starting out to learn using steam gauges, and then if they desire, learn glass.  Also, for a pilot who has learned on steam and transition over to glass, it's vital to occasionally take refresher flights in a steam cockpit, even if it's a rental or a simulator.  Lastly, I believe it's easier to transition from steam to glass than vice versa.
