Garmin Adds Features to Touchscreen GTN Navigators

Garmin has updated the software for GTN touchscreen avionics, and new capabilities include the ability to display weather radar, new ADS-B features, worldwide connectivity with the GRS 56 Iridium datalink system, cross fill between the GTN and GNS 430W/530W, geo-referenced FliteCharts and support for Telligence voice command and 3-D audio. The new software is available free for owners of GTN systems starting in the fourth quarter, although dealers may charge for installation.

For radar-equipped aircraft, the GTN 750 can not only display radar images from the Garmin GWX 68 or GWX 70 radars, but pilots can also adjust tilt or sector scan via the GTN 750’s touchscreen. Garmin offers optional Arinc 708 interface support for other radar types.
