June 1, 201016 yr I looked through the posts but dont see any reference to this.......I am 'old' school, and have some time in the real thing. I see that even though this is an older plane, it has some modern gauges. I noticed that the 'nav2' has the 'needles' for using an ILS but it is on the far right of the cockpit and not in the normal '6 pack' position, making it a bit difficult to fly an ILS. (I havent actually done any instrument work yet in the plane, just an observation) The 'nav2' should actually be 'nav1' since it has the GS needle and located front and center. Is this fixable or am I missing something?Thanks for any input Jay

Durn new fangled, sophisticated, complicated gadgets!!! Next thing you know they will use satellites for navigation and kill all the VOR's! :( Jay
