State-of-the-art processors support faster map rendering and smoother panning throughout the G1000 NXi displays. The flight displays also initialize in seconds so pilots have immediate access to frequencies, flight plan data and more, saving valuable time in the cockpit. The G1000 NXi integrated flight deck also incorporates contemporary animations and LED back-lighting, offering increased display brightness and clarity, reduced power consumption and improved dimming performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– The G1000 NXi integrated flight deck boasts a comprehensive feature set with new and advanced capabilities. Unique features included as part of the G1000 NXi upgrade for the Piper Meridian include:SurfaceWatch runway monitoring technology, which provides visual and aural cues to help prevent pilots from taking off or landing on a taxiway, on a runway that is too short or on the wrong runway based on performance data entered during preflight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– Visual approaches offer pilots enhanced guidance in visual flight conditions based on a three-degree glideslope from the threshold of the runway. Pilots can set customized minimums, select vectors or straight-in for the final approach intercept and fly a visual approach coupled with the autopilot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– Geographical map overlay within the HSI supports the display of NEXRAD, Flight Information Service-Broadcast (FIS-B) weather, weather radar, SafeTaxi\u00a0<\/sup>airport diagrams, traffic1<\/sup>, terrain and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– Flight Stream 510 and Connext\u00a0technology enables Database Concierge, the wireless transfer of aviation databases from the Garmin Pilot\u2122 app on a mobile device to the G1000 NXi integrated flight deck. Flight Stream 510 also supports two-way flight plan transfer, the sharing of traffic, weather, GPS information and back-up attitude information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– The G1000 NXi system supports the display of various Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) In benefits via the GTX 345R transponder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– Pilots can optionally overlay European Visual Reporting Points (VRPs) on the moving map, as VRPs are standard within the navigation database.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– Display of sectional charts, as well as IFR low\/high enroute charts are available on the MFD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– Smart Airspace highlights the airspace nearest the aircraft\u2019s current altitude and de-emphasizes non-pertinent airspace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– COM frequencies are decoded and displayed on the PFD for easier interpretation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– Decoded Terminal Aerodrome Forecasts (TAFs) can be viewed on the MFD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– Split-screen functionality allows pilots to view flight plans, charts and more simultaneously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– An optional audio panel upgrade offers advanced features such as 3D Audio, auto squelch and Bluetooth\u00a0connectivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The G1000 NXi integrated flight deck upgrade for existing G1000-equipped Piper Meridian aircraft is available immediately through select Garmin dealers. Meridian owners and operators can easily upgrade to the G1000 NXi with minimal aircraft down time and disruption of the panel as the displays preserve the same footprint and connectors, so panel modifications are not required. The upgraded components of the G1000 NXi also come with a two-year warranty, which is supported by Garmin\u2019s award-winning avionics product support team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
