IFR episode expectations

[badderjet 181]

More to the above discussed, I just had a closer look at the most recent shots again and noticed something. Compare these shots of the 172 G1000 and the 152. While the 152, interestingly enough, has 3-digit fractions on its COM panel, the G1000 has only 2. Now in this particular shot of the 152 there is no 8.33 freq tuned, but the 3-digit variant could eventually mean it's 8.33 capable, but of course it does not have to. Not so the G1000, which definitely is 25 kHz-only so far. This is not a good sign. If it stays like that there is absolutely no way to tune in a vast amount of real life freqs. Especially since recently a humongous number of freqs was changed from 25 to 8.33, e. g. 136.5 became 136.505, 118.025 became 118.030 and so on.

• Integrated Charts (maybe some deal with Jeppesen?)
• Smarter ATC which knows procedures and IFR
• Cat 3 auto land in Zero visibility

Why would they, if they already announced the Navblue partnership. Wouldn't expect anything Jepp here.
