Smart Cockpits - Their Promises and Perils

The new generation Garmin G1000 NXi looks much like the current edition - but looks can be deceiving.

Date and Time: Tuesday, December 11, 2018, starting at 18:30 Arizona

Speaker(s): David Freiwald

Brief Description:
From a physical standpoint, the NXi displays look very similar to the earlier-generation G1000 versions you’re familiar with. But if you look “under the hood,” you’ll see that the technology has been significantly upgraded. You’ll also note a whole array of new, enhanced operational features and capabilities, including runway identification and alerting technology, wireless cockpit connectivity, HSI mapping on the primary flight display, autopilot-coupled visual approaches down to pilot-selectable minimums and much more.

Come learn about some of these exciting new features: how to use them and how to ensure that the automation - and your aircraft - does exactly what you want it to do! We will explore some of the common pitfalls, perils, and problems that we have experienced in our first thousand-plus hours of using these new systems.
