PIC "Tests"...

I've seen the various navigation "tests" for PIC pilots on the forum here, and what great threads they are. This is very cool stuff.I'm currently training for my instrument rating in a Cessna 172SP, and in a rare moment of brilliance have discovered why pilots learn from the old steam gauges first, before migrating to something with glass. It's so hard using the old VOR and ADF to find intersections specified in clearances, when one knows how easy L-NAV and V-NAV make this. But the rating requires it.Other then the actual a/c, a sim at flight school (loggable) and IP Trainer on my PC (all of which simulate C-172's with "classic" instruments), I sometimes fly the B727-200 "Legendary 727" for similar navigation challenges with the added aspect of jet speed and large a/c inertia. Has anyone here tried such a classic a/c in FS to try and resolve the problems in the nav tests. It's really tough, just how the real B72 pilots did it I'll never know.I'd be interested in any real B76 (or other glass) a/c, and how they would find going back to "steam".Thanks,Bruce.
