AOPA Pilot Magazine - May 2011 - G4

Bring it on “Home”. Familiar “desktop” style
graphical interface on the GTN Homepage makes all
operational functions easy to access. A quick tap of
the dedicated HOME key on the bezel takes you back
to the desktop from any page.
Shall we draw you a picture? Garmin SafeTaxi®
airport diagrams come pre-installed on all the
new GTN models. Plus, on the GTN 750 series,
you also get preloaded electronic FliteCharts®
that
incorporate over 11,000 approaches for some 2,900
U.S. airports1
.
Terrain made plain. With its built-in elevation
database, your Garmin GTN system provides an
extra margin of safety in visualizing terrain/obstacle
conflict situations. For added protection against
hazardous topography, audible terrain alerts are
supported with optional TAWS-B functionality.
Optional satellite weather. With available XM™
WX Satellite Weather link, your GTN unit can access
graphical NEXRAD imaging, as well as the latest
METARs, TAFs, lightning, and other meteorological
data – plus XM Radio entertainment, if you like.
(Requires GDL 69/69A receiver and XM subscription,
each sold separately2
.)
Integrate your approach plate. With optional
Garmin ChartView®
installed on your GTN 750 series
unit, a graphical view of your Jeppesen-format
approach plate can be overlaid on the moving map
for geo-referenced guidance through the procedure.
Easy audio integration. The large-format GTN 750
series can be used as a touchscreen control head to
integrate the audio and intercom functions for your
aircraft. Garmin’s remote GMA 35 audio panel (sold
separately) helps streamline cockpit communications
with record/playback capability for copying clearances.
Do more with a shorter stack. In addition to full
WAAS GPS/Nav/Comm radio management and graphical
MFD map navigation, you can optionally use any GTN
touchscreen as a control head for Garmin GTX 32/33
series remote-mount transponders. The larger-format
GTN 750 series can also be optionally used to control
the GMA 35 remote audio/intercom system.
