Narrative:
The aircraft for this flight was equipped with the recently added flat panel instrument display. The training received for this equipment was not adequate. I did not object to flying this aircraft (despite not having adequate training) as a direct result of the monetary retaliation I experienced the last time I objected to the lack of training for this new equipment. The flight was uneventful and without incident. However; the weather was VFR and we did not experience any abnormal or emergency conditions. If we had to fly in IFR conditions; fly an instrument approach in IMC conditions to approach minimums; or experienced and emergency situation the outcome may have been different.
