Jet Access has completed its third Garmin G5000 integrated flight deck installation for a midsize Citation Excel, expanding its in-house upgrades. The company has performed more than 40 Garmin integrated flight deck upgrades to date, and is a dealer for systems including the G950, G1000, and G5000.&nbsp;
The G5000 upgrade offers operators a touchscreen-controlled integrated flight deck with improved situational awareness and streamlined flight management capabilities. While the upgrade represents a significant investment, the company emphasizes strong return on investment through improved performance, increased reliability, and reduced parts costs compared to outdated avionics systems.
Jet Access provides access to its own upgraded aircraft and other available options to minimize downtime during installation. Clients are also supported with mentorship and post-installation pilot training from experienced flight crews. Jet Access operates from locations in Indiana, Tennessee, and Florida, supporting operators nationwide with its Garmin retrofit services.
“We are honored to be acknowledged as one of the leading Platinum dealers for Garmin,” said Scott Dillon, president of Jet Access maintenance. “We offer more than just products—we deliver a complete service package that includes supplemental lift, cost savings, pilot training, and support.”
Garmin senior director Dan Lind praised the company’s product knowledge and client focus, calling the retrofit “a very successful and popular program for Citation Excel aircraft.”

New developments and products in avionics, specifically about aircraft electronics in the cockpit.
