First, let me say very nice post, Captain A. I'm glad to see someone else is anti-aviation degrees too.

I understand that the academies have these G1000 a/c, and I'm not sure I see the point of that, but in a local FBO, the G1000 brand new Cessnas do help go after the niche of "Rich guy who wants to learn to fly for fun, and wants the best of the best, no matter what." These people think they're safety-keen because it's a new aircraft, but that's not necessarily true as there are old airplanes with meticulous maintenance. However, there are people out there who will only fly for fun, and if they're willing to pay the price, I see no issues with it.
