“Based on the success of the G1000 NXi upgrade programs that are
available today, we’re excited to deliver this upgrade to thousands
of additional aircraft owners and operators,” said Carl Wolf,
Garmin vice president of aviation sales and marketing. “With the
G1000 NXi, customers experience faster performance and find
tremendous value in new features like wireless cockpit
connectivity, visual approach guidance, SurfaceWatch, map HSI and
more, all of which make this upgrade an absolute must-have in every
aircraft.”
Aircraft that currently have a WAAS G1000 integrated flight deck
that are now eligible for the G1000 NXi upgrade are as follows:
- Cessna 172 R/S
- Cessna 182T
- Cessna 206H
- Beechcraft Bonanza G36
- Beechcraft Baron G58
As part of the G1000 NXi upgrade for these aircraft, Flight
Stream 510 and Connext® technology enables Database Concierge, the
wireless transfer of aviation databases from the Garmin Pilot™ app
on a mobile device to the G1000 NXi integrated flight deck.
Additional features enabled by the Flight Stream 510 include
two-way flight plan transfer, the sharing of traffic, weather1, GPS
information, back-up attitude information and more, among the G1000
NXi and the Garmin Pilot, FltPlan Go and ForeFlight Mobile
applications. The G1000 NXi also includes geographical map overlay
within the horizontal situation indicator (HSI), visual approach
guidance and more.
The G1000 NXi supports the display of various Automatic
Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) In benefits, including
traffic and subscription-free Flight Information Service-Broadcast
(FIS-B) weather1. Other standard features include SurfaceWatch
runway monitoring technology, which provides visual and aural cues
to help prevent pilots from taking off or landing on a taxiway, on
a runway that is too short, or on the wrong runway based on
performance data entered during preflight. Visual and audible
runway distance remaining annunciations are also available via
SurfaceWatch. Additional features that are available as standard
include animated NEXRAD weather radar imagery1, Vertical Situation
Display (VSD), IFR enroute charts, VFR sectionals and Visual
Reporting Points (VRPs).
Modernized displays offer improved readability, while
state-of-the-art dual-core processors provide smoother panning
throughout the displays and faster map rendering. Because the
flight displays initialize in seconds, pilots have immediate access
to frequencies, flight plan data and more, saving valuable time in
the cockpit. The G1000 NXi integrated flight deck also incorporates
contemporary animations and new LED back-lighting, offering
increased display brightness and clarity, reduced power consumption
and improved dimming performance.
Aircraft owners and operators can easily upgrade to the G1000
NXi with little aircraft down time and disruption of the panel
because the displays preserve the same footprint and connectors, so
panel and wiring modifications are minimized. Garmin is currently
taking orders for the G1000 NXi upgrade in the Cessna 172/182/206,
Beechcraft Bonanza and Baron and expects deliveries to begin in
August. The G1000 NXi upgrade for these aircraft is available for a
list price of $28,995 from Garmin Authorized Dealers (installation
and hardware charges may apply), which includes the avionics system
software and STC Letter of Authorization (LOA) from Textron
Aviation for list price of $4,000. The upgraded components of the
G1000 NXi also come with a two-year warranty, which is supported by
Garmin’s award-winning aviation support team. For additional
