Synopsis

Garmin G1000 Glass Cockpit Handbook is the most comprehensive guide to the popular Garmin G1000 glass cockpit: this highly acclaimed book makes it easy for you to quickly become an expert on operating and programming the G1000 system in any aircraft. Learn about all Garmin G1000 features & differences. Whether you fly a Beechcraft, Cessna, Columbia, Diamond, Mooney or Tiger, you'll learn which Garmin G1000 features apply to your particular aircraft. You'll learn about the PFD and MFD displays, audio panel, programming the GPS, electrical systems, using the autopilot and dealing with emergencies. A detailed discussion of instrument approaches, integrated with use of the autopilot, will help you become a pro. Advanced features, optional in some aircraft, such as TIS and TAS traffic monitoring systems, Stormscopes, and Terrain Awareness Warning Systems (TAWS) are discussed in detail. You'll also learn to use all of the data link weather features like NEXRAD radar, satellite images, freezing level, winds aloft, AIRMETs, SIGMETS, TFRs, and METARs available through XM Satellite weather. Instructors agree that the cockpit is not an ideal learning environment. Reading this book is one of the most efficient and cost effective ways to learn the G1000 before stepping into the cockpit and taking your first transition lesson.
