What is a glass cockpit?
A digital flight display that replaces the traditional round-dial gauges, showing airspeed, altitude, attitude and engine data on one or more screens. On experimental and light-sport gyroplanes, the common options are Garmin's G3X Touch and G5, and Dynon's SkyView and D-series, built for this category. Garmin's G1000, common in certified general aviation aircraft, is a different, more expensive system and not what you will typically find in this fleet.
Also called EFIS, electronic flight instrument system
That is the whole entry for now. The longer version, with the mechanics and worked examples, is still to be written. See autorotation for how those read once they exist.
