Dum (not just dumb)
No problem with having an iPad in your scan but maybe not so much approaching DH on an ILS.
Look at the way many fly, head inside, not a thought to what is going on around them expecting there ADS-B I think its called to tell them of any other AC around.
Am on Vans aircraft blog site, they talk about watching every move the engine makes on there monitor, big screens telling them where and what is going on just like they were IFR not VFR. Soon coming there way an in flight meeting with another pilot watching TV also.

Worse than texting while driving

Looks like a bad case of SFB!
For about two years now I have been using an I-Pad with a Garmin GDL-39. A fantastic tool. But it just has to be stowed for TO, landing, terminal area operations, flying in IMC etc. In those scenarios it's not a tool, it's a distraction.
