9. AVIONIC SYSTEM
P-Mentor avionic suite is based on G3X Touch. Garmin G3X Nxi suite is an
integrated flight deck whose modular layout allows to extend it in order to add new
features. It provides the pilot with primary flight information, presenting navigation
moving map and engine parameters.
A block diagram of the suite is given in Figure 7-16, this diagram provides a
description of the system architecture and information about the data-buses used.

The installed configuration is based on a two-screens layout.
Primary flight information are displayed on the LH screen, namely PFD (Primary
Flight Display).
Primary Engine and moving map information are displayed on the RH display,
namely MFD (Multi-Function Display).
In the event of a PFD or MFD failure the “reversionary mode” is automatically
enabled.
When reversionary mode is activated primary flight and engine information are
presented together on the remaining display.
In order to provide the pilot with main flight information in the event of a dual display
failure of both PFD and MFD, or in the event of an AHRS and ADC units combined
failure, an integrated digital stand-by instrument, GI 275, featuring airspeed,
altitude, attitude , slip and navigation information is installed.
