Effective orientation program for all the models that have
standardized on the Garmin G1000 glass cockpit system, including
Cessna, Columbia, Diamond, Mooney, and Beech!
The Complete
G1000 Course will help you transition from steam-gauge "round
dials" to the Technically Advanced Aircraft (TAA) glass cockpit
environment. This interactive software allows you to practice
becoming proficient in operating the G1000 from the safety
and privacy of your home or office computer.
The intuitive software interface makes this as easy to use
as reading a book. Computer learning tools in the form of cockpit
representations and demonstrations of the tasks combine with
a Part 141 and and FITS-compliant G1000 course, which is given
by Skyline Aeronautics and in forums around the country. In
this way the software teaches you how to safely and efficienty
use the G1000 without running up the Hobbs!
According
to Michael G. Gaffney, President of Skyline Aeronautics in
St. Louis, "This
software product is a culmination of months of cooperation
between the FAA, ASA, and Skyline Aeronautics. This cooperation
and dedication to produce this excellent software product
will truly benefit any pilot flying the G1000 integrated
instrument panel by providing a professional scenario-based
and student centric training program that will lead to a safe
and enjoyable flight experience, taking advantage of this fantastic
combination of aircraft and panel technology."
