Very helpful course. Having flown an FMS for 6+ years, I found a lot of similarities. Unless I missed it, one thing I was surprised the G1000 does not do is a hold other than a published hold for an approach. ie: if you want to hold at ABC VOR Southeast on the 120 radial, you must switch to OBS and set the course pointer on 300 degrees toward the station, then manually (command the autopilot) between the heading selector for outbound and NAV for inbound leg, keeping up with either time or distance. On the FMS I was flying and the GTN750 I am now flying, you can designate a holding pattern, left or right turns, timed or distance legs. I am looking forward to flying the G1000 in a PA32R
