Hi Robert, I too sometimes encounter your situation. Long after the airline world had embraced FMS and EFIS, I was flying 737-200's with dual vor's and an ADF. We flew into every airport of size east of the Mississippi and lived on "tune and rotate" followed later by "how about a heading for direct". I too love the flat screens and ease of operation we now have, but like you, flying the VOR's, while inefficient, definitely did not cause mental strain. My rv-8 has four GPS's and the GIII I fly has three but they both require schooling and time to load.
