MODEL T182T NAV III AIRPLANE AND SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
GFC 700 AFCS
U.S.
STANDARD AVIONICS
The Garmin G1000 Avionics System is an integrated flight control and
navigation system. The system combines primary flight instruments,
communications, airplane system information and navigational
information all displayed on two color displays. The G1000 system
consists of the following pieces of equipment:
GARMIN DISPLAY UNITS (GDU)
Two identical units are mounted on the instrument panel. One, located
in front of the pilot, is configured as a PFD. A second panel, located to
the right, is configured as a MFD.
The PFD displays roll and pitch information, heading and course
navigation information, plus altitude, airspeed and vertical speed
information to the pilot. The PFD also controls and displays all
communication and navigation frequencies as well as displaying
warning/status annunciations of airplane systems.
The MFD displays a large scalable, moving map that corresponds to
the airplane's current location. Data from other components of the
system can be overlaid on this map. Location and direction of
movement of nearby aircraft, lightning and weather information can all
be displayed on the MFD. The MFD is also the principle display for all
of the engine, fuel, and electrical system parameters.
The reversionary mode places the flight information and basic engine
information on both the PFD and the MFD. This feature allows the pilot
full access to all necessary information should either of the display
screens malfunction.
