G1000 Avionics Overview for Flight Training – AeroGuard FTC

In this video, we give an overview of the Garmin G1000 NXi Avionics used in some AeroGuard Piper Archer training planes including how the information is displayed, and the differences between these ‘glass’ avionics and the traditional ‘6-pack’ or ‘steam gauge’ instrument panel, including the impact to the pitot-static system, gyroscopic instruments and more.

At AeroGuard Flight Training Center, students learn the fundamentals in 6-pack planes before moving onto these more advanced Garmin G1000 systems so that they understand how such systems work and are comfortable with both sets of avionics.

Thank you for sharing, I really need it.

I learned, in this video, that even if you don't have a magnetic compass in your plane, the magnetometers work as one by displaying the correct magnetic compass reading into the G-100 0. i was very confused about this before i watched this video so thank you guys very much!

Another cool feature with the G1000 is the configuration mode...

you can see the status of all external kits and their interface statuses that run through the GIAs. Additionally, you have full command of the Digital IO and can command those freely in maintenance mode.

The logging files that can be created with Garmin's tools are also pretty extensive and can log a variety of parameters under just about any condition.

What instruments would you rely on if the entire glass system failed you. I always thought the six pack was always kept as backup. Great video, thanks.

Thanks Ms. Beth Brown for sharing. Is there a pdf about the Garman1000 I can download.
