The original "I don't know it all" of aviation.
Soon I will be working on preparing for my CFI-I. And will be doing it in the club's Skylane once the comes back from the avionics shop. We are upgrading to a G3X-Touch, GTN 650Xi, GFC500, a G5 as the backup instrument, and some other goodies.
I have already spoken with my examiner of choice and he provided information about how the examination will happen. For the flight portion, I will be asked to perform and one of the approaches "partial panel".
When one has a vacuum system and round dials, being proficient at partial panel is a must to mitigate vacuum system failure. So no problem with the need to demo that during the flight exam.
But with replacing the vac pump with microchips, how should I expect this part of the exam to happen?
