The Garmin G1000 (general aviation’s most popular glass cockpit by far) is almost 12 years old now, and yet for thousands of pilots every year it is new territory. Transitioning to the G1000 isn’t necessarily hard, but it does require some study and practice before blasting off into busy airspace. A little time spent on the ground can really pay off.
There are a number of training resources available to pilots, including a variety of and a fairly comprehensive that includes a desktop simulator program. But sometimes all you need is a basic simulator on your iPad that allows you to push buttons and turn (simulated) knobs, without all the guided lessons and scenarios. This is especially true for maintaining currency, since a quick session on the tablet that’s always with you can be easier than sitting down at a computer.
To fill this need, we’ve recently been using two apps from Simionic, a small company that’s more for simulator enthusiasts than Cirrus or Cessna pilots. While the apps are basic, they are affordable, easy-to-use and quite representative of the actual avionics. Just open the app and start flying.
The G1000 simulator is actually two apps, one for the Primary Flight Display (PFD) and one for the Multi-function Display (MFD). This is handy for focusing on one screen at a time, although the app does allow you to pair two apps together on two separate iPads.
As long as both iPads are on the same WiFi network, you can have a two screen (PFD and MFD) setup and do some pretty realistic training. The app can be used in full-screen mode, so the tapes and numbers are as large as possible, but the soft key indications can still be tapped on for practice. We liked this option on an iPad Mini.
By contrast, on an iPad Air or Pro, you can tap the top left of the screen to show the bezel keys and knobs. You can “fly” the PFD app by tilting your iPad or swiping your finger on the airspeed gauge. This allows you to watch indications change and even practice approaches. Also of note, the app does include full autopilot and flight director features for the GFC 700. Finally, you can use the app with Microsoft Flight Simulator X and X-Plane (again via WiFi) for even more sophisticated training. Power users may be disappointed by some of the features that aren’t here.
For example, there is no synthetic vision and the aircraft are limited to Cessna (172R, 172S, 182T and 206H). But given the price and ease of use, we think the apps are a great value. You can download the apps in the iTunes App Store – one and one – both of which cost $9.99.
A better idea is to buy and save 20%.

A Garmin G1000 Pilot’s Training Guide. A pilot is on a VFR flight from KXYZ to KABC.
Currently, the altitude is 9,500 feet, 50 miles from KABC. Weather is pre- dicted to be MVFR at the destination airport. Using the MFD, describe the steps that must be taken to receive a METAR and/or TAF at the destination airport. Garmin G1000 Pilot’s Training Guide 190-00368-03 Rev. GFC 700 AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEM (AFCS) Objectives Upon completion of this lesson, the pilot should be able to understand the operation of the Garmin Automatic Flight Control System (AFCS) and use the Autopilot throughout various phases of flight. Autopilot to follow all of the departure procedure up to the final cruising altitude?
Using the scenario above, configure the Autopilot to intercept an airway. Currently, the Autopilot is set to HDG mode and ALT hold mode. Garmin G1000 Pilot’s Training Guide 190-00368-03 Rev. An approach where there is typically no procedure turn required to get established on the inbound course to the FAF is the first example. We use GPS RWY 12 at KPRC to show how the G1000 sequences through an approach and what type of annunciation and range factor changes can be expected. PROCEDURES Figure 1 Approach with No Procedure Turn Garmin G1000 Pilot’s Training Guide 190-00368-03 Rev.
FLYING THE MISSED APPROACH As the MAP is passed, if the runway is not in view, a missed approach must be performed. The G1000 continues to give guidance along an extension of the final course segment (FAF to MAP) until manual initiation of the missed approach procedure. FLYING THE PROCEDURE TURN The procedure turn portion of the approach is stored as one of the legs of the approach. For this reason the G1000 requires no special operations from the pilot (other than flying the procedure turn itself) beyond what is required for any other type of ap- proach. PROCEDURES Figure 2 Flying the Procedure Turn 190-00368-03 Rev.
A Garmin G1000 Pilot’s Training Guide. Press the PROC key and select the VOR DMW RWY 7 approach. From the transitions window, select “HIDOX” as the IAF. Choose ‘LOAD?’ or ‘ACTIVATE?’ Within 30 nm of KFMN, the G1000 switches from en route mode to terminal mode. The CDI range gradually transitions from 5.0 to 1.0 nm, full range deflection. PROCEDURES Figure 3 Flying the DME Arc and Vectors to the DME Arc 190-00368-03 Rev.
A Garmin G1000 Pilot’s Training Guide. ‘NEXT DTK 072°’ is displayed. As the waypoint approaches, the message is replaced by a turn advisory ‘TURN TO 072°’.
Initiate a standard rate turn to this course heading. At 2.0 nm from the FAF (PINTO), the G1000 switches from terminal mode to 0.3 nm. CDI scaling is tightened from 1.0 to 0.3 nm, full range deflection. As the plane approaches FIKKA from within the holding pattern, the waypoint message ‘NEXT DTK 090°’ is dis- played. At 2.0 nm from the FAF, the G1000 switches from terminal mode to approach mode. CDI scaling is tightened from 1.0 to 0.3 nm, full range deflection.: When the message ‘RAIM is not available’ is displayed in the Alerts Window on the PFD a missed NOTE approach must be executed. Figure 4 Flying an Approach with a Hold Garmin G1000 Pilot’s Training Guide 190-00368-03 Rev.
Certain approach, departure and arrival procedures in the Jeppesen database contain course from fix flight plan legs. The G1000 is able to load these legs into the flight plan along with the rest of the procedure data, and to provide navigation along these legs. PROCEDURES Figure 5 Course from Fix to Distance or Course from Fix to DME Distance Garmin G1000 Pilot’s Training Guide 190-00368-03 Rev. Note that within a few seconds of pressing the SUSP softkey to release suspend mode and start the missed approach sequence, ‘SUSP’ is re-displayed above the SUSP softkey as the G1000 returns to suspend mode. This is normal when flying a course from a fix to altitude leg and indicates that automatic leg sequencing is suspended. The actual desired track (DTK) depends on the ground speed and distance from the HFD VOR.
Once the SUSP softkey is pressed, the G1000 automatically sequences to each waypoint along the remainder of the departure route, including the selected transition. PROCEDURES Figure 6 Flying a Course from Fix to Manual Sequence 190-00368-03 Rev.
A Garmin G1000 Pilot’s Training Guide. Precision approaches can be performed with the built in Nav (VOR/localizer/glideslope) receivers. Prior to reaching the FAF the CDI should be set to NAV1 or NAV2. The G1000 automatically switches the external CDI output from GPS to NAV1 or NAV2 as the final approach course is intercepted.
final approach course continues. Do NOT follow this extended course.
If a missed approach is required, follow the missed approach procedures as published on the approach plate. Press the SUSP softkey to return to automatic sequencing of waypoints. Figure 7 Flying the ILS Approach 190-00368-03 Rev. A Garmin G1000 Pilot’s Training Guide. As the CDI needle centers, make any remaining course corrections to establish the plane on the final approach course.
At 2.0 nm from the FAF (GELTS), the G1000 switches from terminal mode to approach mode. The CDI scaling is tight- ened from 1.0 to 0.3 nm, full range deflection. PROCEDURES Figure 8 Flying the Vectors Approach 190-00368-03 Rev. A Garmin G1000 Pilot’s Training Guide. Aviation (GA) aircraft. These improvements range from longer life and greater reliability of the primary instruments to a simpli- fied pilot interface.
With the addition of new technologies, the G1000 system is capable of providing the pilot with a wider variety of information about the flight environment, thereby leading to greater situational awareness and reduced pilot workload. Rather than performing continuous direct-to navigation with the GPS, taking the time on the ground to enter a full flight plan allows the G1000 to enhance the navigation experience. First, the pilot will be able to visually inspect the route of flight on the MFD map, once at altitude, so as to verify both terrain clearance (using the terrain awareness overlay) and active.
Originally developed for large commercial aircraft, TCAS technology is now starting to trickle down features and capabilities to the GA fleet. For example, the GTX 33 Mode-S transponder can be used as an optional component in G1000- equipped aircraft and brings Traffic Information Service (TIS) data directly to the cockpit.
