The needs and requirements of business aircraft operators differ greatly from platform to platform and also regionally around the globe. According to Kyle Ludwick, aviation marketing manager at Garmin, some aircraft face avionics obsolescence, while others need updating to take advantage of new technology both in and out of the flight deck. “New regulations drive needs to update or upgrade aircraft and their avionics, too," he said, "and they can have regional focus due to specific regulators’ demands. We have solutions to modernize aircraft on both the technology and capability fronts, all while increasing capability and enhancing safety."
As part of its product development efforts, Garmin looks at the needs of the overall business aviation market, and it is also committed to tailoring its products by aircraft platform. “We offer a full Garmin package that leverages our entire retrofit avionics lineup [e.g., TXi flight displays, TXi EIS, GTN Xi navigators, GFC 600 autopilot, GTX transponders, and GWX weather radar]," Ludwick said. "With that solution, owners and operators can now benefit from more autopilot features and functions, increased situational awareness, and enhanced safety features."
