You still tune VORs, dial in radials, hold at intersections... if you don't want that intersection displayed on the MFD, then just turn it to a different page. It is apples and oranges, really, as I can take the tools learned doing instruments in the G1000 and easily apply them to the steam gauges.
PS... I OWNED that instrument checkride. |
Just curious. Have you flown steam guages in IFR yet?
