Is your iPad doing the flying, or are you? In this episode, we’re calling out the "Digital Crutch" and explaining why staring at a G1000 doesn't automatically make you a professional. We dive into the magic of the traditional "Six Pack" scan and why mastering the basics is the only way to build true stick-and-rudder soul. Whether you’re hand-flying a 1970s trainer or prepping for a multi-engine career, remember: the most important piece of equipment in the cockpit is the six inches between your ears. Stop being a passenger in the left seat and start being a pilot.
