Garmin, the Olathe, Kan. company (Booth No. 6456) that pioneered glass cockpits and synthetic-vision technology in small general aviation airplanes, is stepping up into the bizav big leagues with a Part 25 integrated avionics system called G5000 that will square off against business jet cockpits from industry heavyweights Honeywell and Rockwell Collins.

After Garmin added to its cockpit repertoire with improved versions of G1000 for the Embraer Phenom 100 and 300 and then at last year's NBAA convention unveiled the G3000 cockpit–the baseline system for the developmental HondaJet–many observers predicted it was only a matter of time before Garmin moved up market into larger business jets.
