What is a G1000 cockpit?
The Garmin G1000 is an electronic flight instrument system (EFIS) typically composed of two display units, one serving as a primary flight display, and one as a multi-function display. Manufactured by Garmin Aviation, it serves as a replacement for most conventional flight instruments and avionics. Garmin’s helicopter electronic stability and protection (H-ESP) technology is also featured in the system, helping pilots maintain a safe flight envelope even when hand-flying. We are very excited to bring the highly capable GFC 600H to Airbus H130 owners and operators.
What is the difference between G1000 and NXi G1000?
The garmin g1000 nxi has the following upgraded features over the standard g1000. Pilots can now select visual approaches that will provide vertical guidance based on a 3-degree glideslope. Pilots can intercept and fly a visual approach coupled to the autopilot. Surface watch runway monitoring technology. Perspective incorporates 12-inch screens, 35 percent larger than those on existing g1000 systems, and the ideal canvas for garmin’s recently announced synthetic vision technology (svt).
What is the successor to the Garmin G1000?
We are excited to announce the successor to the ever-popular G1000 integrated flight deck, the G1000 NXi. Boasting a modernized flight display design with significant performance enhancements, the G1000 NXi incorporates innovative capabilities into a state-of-the-art avionics platform. Depending on the airplane manufacturer and whether or not a GFC 700 autopilot is installed, the G1000 system will consist of either two GDU 1040 displays (no autopilot), a GDU 1040 PFD/GDU 1043 MFD (GFC 700 autopilot installed), or a GDU 1045 PFD/GDU 1045 MFD (GFC 700 autopilot installed with VNAV).
