Maybe GE has changed the Avantium oven since 2005, but the Avantium we had in our 2005 RE3 was not a "convection oven". It did (or could) cook faster, but not with convection (which I think is heated air). It of course had microwave, for microwaving. It had an electric heating element, for normal oven cooking, with metal or whatever. And it also had a 500 watt (I think) halogen lamp which provided additional heat for faster oven cooking, which we really didn't use much.
For oven cooking metal pans are fine. As a matter of fact, the instructions require the use of the provided round metal tray (and removal of the round glass plate) any time one uses the oven electric heating element.
FWIW!
