Footnotes:
(a) Torque limit applies within range of 1000 - 1700 propeller RPM (N2). Below 1000 RPM, torque is
limited to 62%
(b) Torque indications between 100% and 156% are time limited to 20 seconds.
(c) To account for power setting accuracy and steady state fluctuations, inadvertent torque excursions up
to 102% is time limited to 7 minutes.
(d) Maximum ITT during idle is 750ºC. High ITT at ground idle may be corrected by reducing accessory
load and/or increasing N1 RPM.
(e) ITT indication between 820ºC and 850ºC is time limited to 20 seconds.
(f) ITT starting limit at 1000ºC (red triangle) is time limited to 5 seconds.
(g) Maximum reverse propeller operation is limited to 1650 RPM N2 speed.
(h) Propeller (N2) speeds between 1735 RPM and 1870 RPM are time limited to 20 seconds.
(i) To account for power setting accuracy and steady state fluctuations, inadvertent propeller RPM
excursions up to 1735 RPM are time limited to 7 minutes.
(j) Normal oil pressure is 90 to 135 psi at gas generator speeds above 72%. With engine torque below
62%, minimum oil pressure is 60 psi at normal oil temperature (60 degrees to 70 degrees C).
Oil pressures under 90 psi are undesirable. Under emergency conditions, to complete a flight, a
lower oil pressure limit of 60 psi is permissible at a reduced power, not to exceed 62% torque. Oil
pressures below 60 psi are unsafe and require that either the engine be shut down or a landing be
made at the nearest suitable airport, using the minimum power required to sustain flight.
Fluctuations of plus or minus 10 psi are acceptable.
During extremely cold starts, oil pressure may reach 200 psi (red triangle). In flight, oil pressures
above 135 psi but not exceeding 200 psi are permitted only for the duration of the flight.
(k) Oil temperature limits are -40ºC and +110 ºC. However, temperatures between 99ºC and 110 ºC
are limited to a maximum of 10 minutes.

Use of VNAV is prohibited with course changes greater than 90°.
The fuel quantity, fuel required, fuel remaining, and gross weight estimate functions of the G1000 are
supplemental information only and must be verified by the flight crew.
Do not use SafeTaxi or Chartview functions as the basis for ground maneuvering. SafeTaxi and
Chartview functions do not comply with the requirements of AC 20-159 and are not qualified to be used
as an airport moving map display (AMMD). SafeTaxi and Chartview are to be used by the flight crew to
orient themselves on the airport surface to improve pilot situational awareness during ground operations.
The use of the colors red and amber within the checklist function has not been evaluated or approved by
this STC. Use of the colors red and/or amber within user created checklists may require separate
evaluation and approval by the FAA.

G1000 GNSS (GPS/SBAS) NAVIGATION SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
NOTE
Limitations are in bolded text for this section only
The pilot must confirm at system initialization that the Navigation database is current.
Navigation database is expected to be current for the duration of the flight. If the AIRAC cycle will
change during flight, the pilot must ensure the accuracy of navigation data, including suitability of
navigation facilities used to define the routes and procedures for flight. If an amended chart
affecting navigation data is published for the procedure, the database must not be used to
conduct the procedure.
GPS/SBAS based IFR enroute, oceanic, and terminal navigation is prohibited unless the pilot
verifies and uses a valid, compatible, and current Navigation database or verifies each waypoint
for accuracy by reference to current approved data.
Discrepancies that invalidate a procedure should be reported to Garmin International. The affected
procedure is prohibited from being flown using data from the Navigation database until a new
Navigation database is installed in the aircraft and verified that the discrepancy has been
corrected.
Contact information to report Navigation database discrepancies can be found at
www.Garmin.com>Support>Contact Garmin Support>Aviation. Pilots and operators can view navigation
data base alerts at www.Garmin.com > In the Air> NavData Alerts.
For flight planning purposes, in areas where SBAS coverage is not available, the pilot must check
RAIM availability. Within the United States, RAIM availability can be determined using the G1000
WFDE Prediction program, part number 006-A0154-01 (010-G1000-00) or later approved version with
GARMIN GA36 and GA37 antennas selected, or the FAA’s en route and terminal RAIM prediction
website: www.raimprediction.net, or by contacting a Flight Service Station. Within Europe, RAIM
availability can be determined using the G1000 WFDE Prediction program or Europe’s AUGER GPS
RAIM Prediction Tool at http://augur.ecacnav.com/augur/app/home. For other areas, use the G1000
WFDE Prediction program. This requirement is not necessary if SBAS coverage is confirmed to be
available along the entire route of flight. The route planning and WFDE prediction program may be
downloaded from the GARMIN G1000 website on the internet. For information on using the WFDE
Prediction Program, refer to GARMIN WAAS FDE Prediction Program, part number 190-00643-01,
‘WFDE Prediction Program Instructions’.
For flight planning purposes, operations within the U.S. National Airspace System on RNP and
RNAV procedures when SBAS signals are not available, the availability of GPS integrity RAIM
shall be confirmed for the intended route of flight. In the event of a predicted continuous loss of
RAIM of more than five minutes for any part of the intended route of flight, the flight should be delayed,

canceled, or re-routed on a track where RAIM requirements can be met.
For flight planning purposes for operations within European B-RNAV and P-RNAV airspace, if
more than one satellite is scheduled to be out of service, then the availability of GPS integrity
RAIM shall be confirmed for the intended flight (route and time). In the event of a predicted
continuous loss of RAIM of more than five minutes for any part of the intended flight, the flight should be
delayed, canceled, or re-routed on a track where RAIM requirements can be met.
For flight planning purposes, operations where the route requires Class II navigation the aircraft’s
operator or flight crew must use the Garmin WFDE Prediction program to demonstrate that there
are no outages on the specified route that would prevent the G1000 from providing primary means
of Class II navigation in oceanic and remote areas of operation that requires (RNP-10 or RNP-4)
capability.
If the Garmin WFDE Prediction program indicates fault exclusion (FDE) is unavailable for
more than 34 minutes in accordance with FAA Order 8400.12B for RNP-10 requirements, or 25 minutes
in accordance with FAA Order 8400.33 for RNP-4 requirements, then the operation must be rescheduled
when FDE is available.
Both GIA 63Ws GPS navigation receivers must be operating and providing GPS navigation
guidance to their respective PFD for operations requiring RNP-4 performance.
North Atlantic (NAT) Minimum Navigational Performance Specifications (MNPS) Airspace operations per
AC 91-49 and AC 120-33 require both GPS/SBAS receivers to be operating and receiving usable signals
except for routes requiring only one Long Range Navigation sensor. Each display computes an
independent navigation solution based on the on-side GPS sensor. However, either display will
automatically revert to the cross-side sensor if the on-side sensor fails or if the cross-side sensor is
determined to be more accurate. A “BOTH ON GPS1” or “BOTH ON GPS2” message does not
necessarily mean that one GPS has failed. Refer to the MFD AUX-GPS STATUS page to determine the
state of the unused GPS.
Whenever possible, RNP and RNAV routes including Standard Instrument Departures (SIDs) and
Obstacle Departure Procedures (ODPs), Standard Terminal Arrival (STAR), and enroute RNAV “Q” and
RNAV “T” routes should be loaded into the flight plan from the database in their entirety, rather than
loading route waypoints from the database into the flight plan individually. Selecting and inserting
individual named fixes from the database is permitted, provided all fixes along the published route to be
flown are inserted. Manual entry of waypoints using latitude/longitude or place/bearing is
prohibited.
“GPS”, “or GPS”, and “RNAV (GPS)” instrument approaches using the G1000 System are
prohibited unless the pilot verifies and uses the current Navigation database.
GPS based
instrument approaches must be flown in accordance with an approved instrument approach
procedure that is loaded from the Navigation database.
Not all published Instrument Approach Procedures (IAP) are in the Navigation database. Pilots
planning on flying an RNAV instrument approach must ensure that the Navigation database
contains the planned RNAV Instrument Approach Procedure and that approach procedure must
be loaded from the Navigation database into the FMS flight plan by its name.
IFR non-precision approach approval using the GPS/SBAS sensor is limited to published
approaches within the U.S. National Airspace System. Approaches to airports in other airspace
are not approved unless authorized by the appropriate governing authority.
When operating under instrument flight rules, flight plan selection of any required alternate airport must
not be based on an RNAV (GPS) LP/LPV or LNAV/VNAV approach. Alternate airport selection must be
based upon an LNAV approach or an available ground-based approach for which the aircraft is equipped
to fly.

The navigation equipment required to join and fly an instrument approach procedure is indicated by the
title of the procedure and notes on the IAP chart. Use of the GARMIN G1000 GPS/SBAS receivers to
provide navigation guidance during the final approach segment of an ILS, LOC, LOC-BC, LDA,
SDF, MLS or any other type of approach not approved for “or GPS” navigation is prohibited.
When using the G1000 VOR/LOC/GS receivers to fly the final approach segment, VOR/LOC/GS
navigation data is must be selected and presented on the CDI of the pilot flying.
Navigation information is referenced to WGS-84 reference system, and should only be used where the
Aeronautical Information Publication (including electronic data and aeronautical charts) conform to
WGS-84 or equivalent.

3. Autopilot ALT Mode.................................................................................................... DISENGAGED
4. Pilot’s Static Air Source .................................................................................. SELECT ALTERNATE
A sudden sustained change in rate-of-climb indication accompanied by abnormal indicated
airspeed and altitude changes beyond normal calibrated differences observed on the Pilot’s
PFD would indicate a blockage of the pilot’s static system.
•

If Pilot’s and Copilot’s altimeters agree within normal calibrated differences with Pilot’s Alternate
Static Air Source in the ALTERNATE position:
Refer to Section 5, PERFORMANCE in the aircraft AFM for Airspeed Calibration-Alternate
System and Altimeter Correction–Alternate System for the Pilot’s Altimeter.

•

In RVSM Airspace:

5. Altitude ............................................................... CROSS-CHECK USING STANDBY ALTIMETER
Record each altimeter reading for contingency procedure use
6. Advise ATC of loss of redundancy of primary altimetry systems. Perform appropriate RVSM
contingency procedures outlined in the operator’s RVSM manual for the loss of redundancy of
primary altimetry systems.
If no change in rate-of-climb, airspeed, or altitude is observed:
7. Pilot’s Static Air Source ........................................................................................SELECT NORMAL
8. Compare indicated altitude to GPS altitude on MFD AUX-GPS STATUS page to aid in
determining which primary system is most accurate.

NOTE
When comparing indicated altitude to GPS altitude, deviations from standard temperature or
pressure can cause indicated altitude to deviate from GPS altitude. Those errors are largest at high
altitude. Below 10,000 feet with the correct local altimeter setting set, GPS altitude will usually be
within 600 feet or better of the correct indicated altitude. Use the following guidelines to help
estimate correct altitude from non-standard conditions:
•

Temperatures WARMER than standard can cause GPS altitude to read HIGHER than indicated
altitude.

•

Pressures LOWER than standard can cause GPS altitude to read HIGHER than indicated
altitude.

Navigate using the course pointer and CDI on the PFDs.

b.

For instrument approach procedures, obtain altitude information from ATC.

DUAL GPS/SBAS FAILURE (AMBER “DR” OR “LOI” ON HSI)
LOSS OF GPS/SBAS NAVIGATION DATA
When both GPS/SBAS receivers are inoperative or GPS navigation information is not available or
invalid, the G1000 system will enter one of two modes: Dead Reckoning mode (DR) or Loss Of
Integrity mode (LOI). The mode is indicated on the HSI by an amber “DR” or “LOI”. Which mode
is active depends on the distance from the destination airport in the active flight plan.
If the LOI annunciation is displayed, revert to an alternate means of navigation appropriate to the
route and phase of flight. In Dead Reckoning mode, the MAP – NAVIGATION MAP will continue
to be displayed with a ghosted aircraft icon in the center and an amber ‘DR’ overwriting the icon.
Aircraft position will be based upon the last valid GPS position, then estimated by Dead
Reckoning methods. Changes in true airspeed, altitude, or winds aloft can affect the estimated
position substantially. Dead Reckoning is only available in Enroute mode; Terminal and Approach
modes do not support DR. Course deviation information will be displayed as an amber CDI on
both PFDs and will remain for up to 20 minutes after GPS position data has been lost. The
autopilot and/or flight director may be coupled in GPS mode while the system is in Dead
Reckoning mode. Refer to the G1000 Cockpit Reference Guide for further information. Revert
to an alternate means of navigation appropriate to the route and phase of flight.
If Alternate Navigation Sources (ILS, LOC, VOR, DME, ADF) Are Available:
1. Navigation

............................................................................. USE ALTERNATE SOURCES

If No Alternate Navigation Sources Are Available:

DEAD RECKONING (DR) MODE - ACTIVE WHEN THE AIRPLANE IS GREATER THAN 30 NM FROM
THE DESTINATION AIRPORT:
1. Navigation - Use the airplane symbol, magenta course line on the map display and the amber
CDI for course information.

NOTE
•

ALL INFORMATION NORMALLY DERIVED FROM GPS TURNS AMBER. ALL OF THIS
INFORMATION WILL BECOME LESS ACCURATE OVER TIME.

•

TAWS is inoperative.

•

DR mode uses heading, true airspeed, last known wind data, and the last known GPS
position to estimate the airplane’s current position. DR information will be available for a
maximum of 20 minutes.

•

MAP – TRAFFIC MAP display is not dependent on GPS information. The position of
displayed traffic relative to the airplane symbol on the map is still accurate.

LOSS OF INTEGRITY (LOI) MODE - ACTIVE WHEN THE AIRPLANE IS WITHIN 30NM OF THE
DESTINATION OR DEPARTURE AIRPORT (AS CALCULATED FROM THE PREVIOUS GPS OR DR
POSITION):
1. Navigation - Fly toward known visual conditions. Use ATC or other information sources as
available.

NOTE
•

All information derived from GPS or DR will be removed from the displays.

•

TAWS is inoperative.

•

The airplane symbol is removed from all maps. The map will remain centered at the last
known position. “NO GPS POSITION” will be annunciated in the center of the map.

GPS APPROACH ALARM LIMITS EXCEEDED
During a GPS LPV, LNAV/VNAV, or LNAV+V approach, if the Horizontal or Vertical alarm limits
are exceeded, the G1000 System will downgrade the approach. This will be annunciated in the
ALERTS window and by an annunciation change on the HSI from LPV, L/VNAV, or LNAV+V to
LNAV. GPS glide path vertical guidance will be removed from the PFD. The approach may be
continued using the LNAV only minimums.
During any GPS approach in which both precision and non-precision alarm limits are exceeded,
the G1000 System will flag the lateral guidance and display a system message “ABORT
APPROACH loss of navigation”. Immediately upon viewing the message, the unit will revert to
Terminal navigation mode alarm limits. If the position integrity is within these limits lateral
guidance will be restored and the GPS may be used to execute the missed approach, otherwise
alternate means of navigation must be utilized.

ILS DATABASE FREQUENCY AND/OR COURSE MISMATCH
In some rare instances, the actual course and/or frequency for an ILS localizer may not match the
course or frequency stored in the G1000 database. This occurs most often when an ILS course or
frequency change is made by the FAA in between Jeppesen database update cycles. Manual
course or frequency changes can be made to override the auto-loaded values in the G1000 database
whenever an ILS approach is loaded into the G1000 via the FMS. ADVISORY messages will post in
the ALERTS window on the PFDs prompting the pilot verify course and/or frequency information.
Use the latest published instrument approach procedure information to verify all course and
frequency information.
While flying ILS approaches with manually overridden course or frequency information:

•

For airplanes with TAWS-A installed, the Glideslope Deviation Alerting (GSD) will be
function normally.

•

If SVS Pathways are turned on for display, they must be turned off prior to turning
inbound onto the final approach course to prevent possible confusion. This is because
the pathway display is also dependent on accurate database information to display
proper guidance.

If SVS Pathways are Displayed While Flying a Manually Overriden Frequency or Course on an ILS
Approach:
Prior to Turning Inbound on the Final Approach Course:
1. PFD Softkey on PFD1 and/or PFD2 .................................................................................... PRESS
2. SYN VIS Softkey .................................................................................................................... PRESS
3. PATHWAY Softkey ...................................................... PRESS TO REMOVE PATHWAY DISPLAY

If the EMERG FREQ switch is installed, the following alternate procedure may be used:
1. EMERG FREQ switch ............................................................................. LIFT COVER AND PRESS

NOTE
The above procedure will tune the active COM 1 field to the emergency frequency 121.5.
COM 2 operation is not controlled by the EMERG FREQ switch.

FAILED ATTITUDE AND/OR HEADING
(ATTITUDE FAIL AND/OR RED "X" OVER HEADING DISPLAY ON PFD)
This indicates a loss of pitch, roll, and/or heading information from AHRS. Refer to GARMIN
G1000 Cockpit Reference Guide and Pilot’s Guide for additional information. Interference from
GPS repeaters operating inside nearby hangars or magnetic anomalies caused by nearby
structures can cause an intermittent loss of attitude and heading displays while the aircraft is on
the ground. This is usually accompanied by a BOTH ON GPS 1, BOTH ON GPS 2, or LOI
annunciation. Moving the aircraft more than 100 yards away from the source of the interference
should alleviate the condition.
Taxiing the aircraft before a valid GPS position has been acquired can cause attitude and/or
heading display to indicate a failed condition. As soon as the aircraft acquires a valid GPS
position, attitude and heading should return to normal.

ICING FLIGHT
IN FLIGHT

WARNING

DUE TO DISTORTION OF THE WING AIRFOIL, ICE ACCUMULATION ON THE LEADING EDGES
CAN CAUSE A SIGNIFICANT LOSS IN RATE OF CLIMB AND IN SPEED PERFORMANCE, AS
WELL AS INCREASES IN STALL SPEED. EVEN AFTER CYCLING THE DEICE BOOTS, THE
ICE ACCUMULATION REMAINING ON THE BOOTS AND UNPROTECTED AREAS OF THE
AIRPLANE CAN CAUSE LARGE PERFORMANCE LOSSES. FOR THE SAME REASON, THE
AURAL STALL WARNING SYSTEM MAY NOT BE ACCURATE AND SHOULD NOT BE RELIED
UPON. UNDER THESE CONDITIONS, ESP AND AUTOPILOT UNDERSPEED PROTECTION
MAY ALSO NOT BE ACCURATE AND SHOULD NOT BE RELIED UPON.

OTHER PROCEDURES
AUTOPILOT OPERATION
Autopilot/Flight Director mode annunciations on the PFDs displayed in green indicate active
autopilot/flight director modes. Annunciations displayed in white indicate armed autopilot/flight
director modes. Normal mode transitions will flash inverse video green/black for 10 seconds
before becoming steady green. Abnormal mode transitions will flash amber for 10 seconds
before the default mode is annunciated as the active mode.
Default autopilot/flight director modes are Pitch (PIT) and Roll (ROL) modes.
The XFR button on the mode control panel selects the navigation, attitude, and air data inputs the
autopilot / flight director uses. Pressing the XFR button transfers these selections to the
opposite side and causes the autopilot / flight director to drop selected lateral and vertical modes
and engage the default PIT and ROL modes. The pilot must re-select the desired modes.

VERTICAL MODES
VERTICAL SPEED (VS) MODE
1. Altitude Preselect ....................................................................................SET to Desired Altitude
2. Press VS Button ............................................. GREEN ‘VS’, White ‘ALTS’ annunciated on PFD
3. Vertical Speed Reference........................................................... ADJUST using UP / DN Wheel
4. Green ‘ALT’..................................................................... VERIFY UPON ALTITUDE CAPTURE
FLIGHT LEVEL CHANGE (FLC) MODE
1. Altitude Preselect ....................................................................................SET to Desired Altitude
2. Press FLC Button ......................................... GREEN ‘FLC’, White ‘ALTS’ annunciated on PFD
3. AIRSPEED Reference ................................................................ ADJUST using UP / DN Wheel
4. Green ‘ALT’..................................................................... VERIFY UPON ALTITUDE CAPTURE

NOTE
If the altitude preselect is not changed before selecting FLC, the autopilot may re-capture
the current altitude immediately after entering FLC mode. Always ensure that the altitude
preselect is adjusted prior to selecting FLC.
Pressing the SPD button while in FLC Mode toggles the airspeed reference between
KIAS and Mach. FLC will automatically transition from Mach to KIAS reference during a
descent when the current Mach reference equals 260 KIAS. FLC will not automatically
transition from KIAS to a Mach reference during a climb.

ALTITUDE HOLD (ALT) MODE, MANUAL CAPTURE
1. At the desired altitude ................................................... PRESS ALT Button on Mode Controller
2. Green ‘ALT’........................................................................................................ VERIFY on PFD
If climbing or descending when the ALT button is pressed, the aircraft will overshoot the
reference altitude and then return to it. The amount of overshoot will depend on the
vertical speed when the ALT button is pressed.

VERTICAL NAVIGATION (VNAV)
VNAV Descent
Vertical navigation will only function when the navigation source is GPS navigation. VNAV will
not function if the navigation source is VOR, Localizer, or ADF. The airplane’s heading must
be within 75° of the desired GPS course and within 10 NM cross track error in order for VNAV
to function.
VNAV functions only for enroute and terminal descents. Vertical navigation is not available
during climbs or descents between the final approach fix (FAF) and the missed approach
point (MAP). Refer to the G1000 Cockpit Reference Guide and Pilot’s Guide for additional
information.
1. Once clearance from ATC has been received ................................... RESET Altitude Preselect
to the vertical clearance limit.
2. VNV Button .............................................. PRESS within 5 minutes of the top of descent (TOD)

NOTE
If the VNV button is pressed more than 5 minutes before the TOD or the altitude preselect is
not reset to a lower altitude, VPTH will begin to flash inverse video, white/black, when the
aural alert ‘Vertical Track’ annunciation sounds.
Pressing the VNV button and/or resetting the altitude preselect to a lower altitude cancels the
flashing and the AFCS will capture and track the vertical profile.
If VNV button is not pressed, or the altitude preselect is not reset to a lower altitude, VPTH
stops flashing at the TOD and the airplane will remain in ALT mode and not descend.
ALTV will be the armed vertical mode during the descent if the altitude preselect is set to a
lower altitude than the VNAV reference altitude. This indicates the autopilot / flight director
will capture the VNAV altitude reference. ALTS will be the armed mode during the descent if
the altitude preselect is set at or above the VNAV reference altitude indicating that the
autopilot / flight director will capture the altitude preselect altitude reference.
Vertical DIRECT TO

APPROACHES
The G1000 is capable of performing many tasks for the pilot to reduce pilot workload
during the approach and landing phases of flight. The G1000 system references the
Flight Plan to predict the pilot’s intended actions. Time permitting, the pilot should keep
the Flight Plan updated with the destination airport and the instrument approach to be
flown. This will keep the G1000 from performing tasks associated with the approach
procedures entered in the flight plan if the approach plan changes.

For TAWS-A equipped aircraft: When executing a missed approach from an ILS approach,
occasional Glideslope Deviation cautions may be received while establishing the missed
approach climb, even if the aircraft is not below the ILS glideslope. This is caused by
transitioning through ILS glideslope side lobe signals. If the Glideslope Deviation alert
annunciates during the initial portion of the go-around, continue to execute the go-around
procedure and fly the appropriate missed approach procedure.

SYNTHETIC VISION
Use of Pathways
If Synthetic Terrain is displayed on the PFD, the Pathways may be used to assist the pilot’s awareness of
the programmed lateral and vertical navigation path. The following sections describe the basic use of
the Pathways in various flight segments. For more detailed information, consult the G1000 Pilot’s Guide.
Departure
Prior to departure, load and activate the desired flight plan into the G1000 FMS, set the initial altitude on
the G1000 altitude selector and select GPS on the HSI display just as you would without the SVS system.
The programmed flight path will be displayed as a series of magenta boxes along the path at the flight
plan altitude subject to the following conditions;
•

If the first segment of the flight plan is a heading to altitude leg, the Pathway will not be displayed
for that segment. The first Pathway segment displayed will be the first GPS course leg.

•

The Pathway must be within the SVS field of view of 30 degrees left and 35 degrees right. If the
programmed path is outside that field of view, the Pathways will not be visible on the display until
the aircraft has turned toward the course.

•

The Pathway will be displayed at either the altitude selected on the G1000 selector OR the
altitude published for the procedure (e.g. SID) WHICHEVER IS HIGHER.

After departure, the primary aircraft control must be by reference to the primary aircraft instruments. The
SVS and Pathway displays should be used to aid in awareness of the terrain and programmed flight path.
Prior to intercepting the programmed course, the Pathway will be displayed as a series of magenta
“boxes” with pointers at each corner that point in the direction of the programmed course. The Pathway
boxes will not be displayed on portions of the course line that would lead the pilot to intercept the course
in the wrong direction.
As the aircraft approaches the center of the programmed course and altitude, the number of Pathway
boxes will decrease to a minimum of four.
Enroute
When enroute, the Pathway will be displayed along the lateral path defined by the flight plan, at the
altitude selected on the G1000 altitude selector.
Flight plan changes in altitude that require a climb will be indicated by the Pathway being displayed as a
level path at the altitude entered for the current flight plan leg. Because the G1000 system does not
have information available to it about aircraft performance, climb profiles are not displayed by the
Pathway.
If the programmed flight plan includes one or more defined VNAV descent segments, the descent path(s)
will be displayed by the Pathway as prompted by the G1000 FMS.
If the flight plan includes a significant change in course at a waypoint, the Pathway boxes toward the
currently active waypoint will be magenta in color. The boxes defining the next flight plan segment may
be visible, but will be displayed in a white color.

Approach
During an approach transition with the GPS CDI active, the Pathway will be displayed along the lateral
path defined by the flight plan, at the altitude selected on the G1000 altitude selector. Pathway will be
displayed at least up to the Final Approach Fix on all instrument approach procedures.
For ILS, LNAV/VNAV, LNAV+V and LPV approaches, the Pathway will display the lateral and vertical
descent segments from the glideslope or glidepath intercept altitude, down to the Decision Altitude. For
all other non-precision approaches, Pathway will not display beyond the Final Approach Fix until the
missed approach segment become active.
In all cases, the pilot must still ensure that the aircraft complies with the requirements of the published
instrument approach procedure.
Missed approach
When the missed approach is selected on the G1000 FMS, the Pathway to the Missed Approach Holding
Point will be displayed just as described for the departure segment.
The pilot must assure that the aircraft path will, at all times, comply with the requirements of the published
missed approach procedure.
If the initial missed approach leg is heading-to-altitude or a leg defined by other than a GPS course, the
Pathway will not be displayed for that segment.
If the course to the Missed Approach Holding Point is out of the SVS field of view during the initial missed
approach climb, the Pathway will not be visible on the PFD until the aircraft is turned toward the course.
The Pathway will be displayed at the published missed approach altitude OR the altitude set on the
G1000 altitude selector WHICHEVER IS HIGHER. If the G1000 altitude selector is set to MDA on the
final approach segment and not reset during the initial missed approach, the Pathway will still be
displayed at the published missed approach altitude.

GENERAL
This section supplements the Systems Description chapter in the aircraft’s original Pilot’s Operating
Handbook and FAA Approved Airplane Flight Manual. This section will follow the format and layout of
the chapter in the original manual. Only topics changed by the installation of the G1000 integrated
avionics system will be addressed in this supplement.
The G1000 system is an integrated system that presents flight instrumentation, navigation,
communication, weather avoidance, engine instrumentation, and supplemental flight information to the
pilot for enhanced situational awareness through large-format displays. The G1000 also incorporates an
automatic flight control system that includes autopilot and flight director functions, as well as an optional
Electronic Stability & Protection (ESP) system. Refer to the GARMIN Pilot’s Guide and Cockpit
Reference Guide, P/N 190-01343-00 and 190-01344-00 Rev. B or later FAA accepted revision for
detailed descriptions of the GARMIN G1000 system including its components, detailed descriptions of
functions, and operating instructions.

G1000 INTEGRATED AVIONICS
SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The main components of the G1000 Integrated Avionics system consists of 14 Line Replaceable Units
(LRU)s. Seven of those LRUs are mounted in the cockpit and interface the pilot to the G1000 system.
There are two Primary Flight Displays (PFDs) that display primary flight information to the pilot, including
attitude, airspeed, altitude, heading, vertical speed, navigation information, system information, and pilot
situational awareness information. In the center of the cockpit, a 15 inch Multi-Function Display (MFD)
displays engine gauges, flight plan data, various map displays, and access to aviation and weather
information. Information access and data entry through the MFD is via the GCU 477 MFD controller
mounted in the pedestal between the pilot and copilot seats.
Communications are interfaced through the PFDs and two audio panels mounted outside each PFD.
Radio tuning controlled through both PFDs and the GCU 477 controller. Audio levels for the Com and
Nav radios, ADF, intercom, and XM music are controlled by the two audio panels.
The G1000 incorporates a fully digital integrated autopilot and flight director. Pilot interface to the AFCS
is through the GMC 710 Autopilot Mode controller mounted in the center of the cockpit just below the
airplane’s glareshield.
In addition to dual Primary Flight Displays, the system incorporates dual Air Data Computers (GDC), Dual
AHRS (GRS), and Dual Integrated Avionics (GIA) units for system redundancy. Each GIA contains a
VHF Com radio, a VHF Nav radio, Glide Slope receiver, Marker Beacon receiver, and a SBAS
augmented GPS receiver.
Finally, the G1000 system includes weather radar and satellite down-linked weather information for
weather avoidance and situational awareness.
INSTRUMENT PANEL
The G1000 Instrument Panel consists of two 10 inch LCD Primary Flight Displays, one 15 inch LCD
Multi-Function Display, two audio panels, autopilot / flight director mode control panel, an MFD controller,
and three 2 ¼ inch standby instruments. The ADF control head was relocated from the radio stack
location on the instrument panel to the pedestal.

FLIGHT CONTROLS
AFCS, AUTOPILOT, FLIGHT DIRECTOR AND RUDDER BOOST
The GFC 700 is a digital Automatic Flight Control System (AFCS), fully integrated within the G1000
System avionics architecture. The GFC 700 is a three-axis autopilot and flight director system which
provides the pilot with the following features:
Autopilot (AP) — Autopilot operation occurs within the pitch, roll, and pitch trim servos. It also provides
servo monitoring and automatic flight control in response to flight director steering commands, AHRS
attitude and rate information, and airspeed.
Flight Director (FD) - Two flight directors, each operating independently within their respective GIA and
referred to as pilot-side and copilot-side. Commands for the selected flight director are displayed on both
PFDs.
The flight director provides:
•

Command Bars showing pitch/roll guidance

•

Vertical/lateral mode selection and processing

•

Autopilot communication

Yaw Damper (YD) — The yaw servo is self-monitoring and provides Dutch Roll damping and turn
coordination in response to yaw rate, roll angle, vertical acceleration, and airspeed.
Rudder Boost — The GFC 700 incorporates the rudder boost capabilities. The rudder boost is enabled
by setting the pedestal mounted control switch, placarded RUDDER BOOST – OFF, to the RUDDER
BOOST position. The system senses engine torque from both engines. When the difference in these
torques exceeds a preset level, the yaw servo is activated and deflects the rudder to assist pilot effort in
maintaining directional control. The servo contribution is proportional to the engine torque differential.
Trimming of the rudder must be accomplished by the pilot. The rudder boost system is disabled if the
RUDDER BOOST switch is OFF and is interrupted when the AP/YD DISC/TRIM INTRPT button is
pressed.
The amber caution annunciator, [RUD BOOST OFF], is retained from the original caution/advisory/status
annunciator panel to indicate that the rudder boost system is unavailable due to the rudder boost control
switch being in the OFF position, the AP/YD DISC/TRIM INTRPT has been pressed on either yoke, or if a
fault in the rudder boost system has rendered it inoperative.

Electric Pitch Trim — The pitch trim servo provides manual electric pitch trim capability when the autopilot
is not engaged.
Pilot commands to the AFCS are entered through the GMC 710 Autopilot Mode Controller mounted in the
center of the cockpit under the airplane’s glareshield. The GMC 710 controller also controls the heading
bug, navigation course selector on each PFD, and the altitude preselect.
Other components of the autopilot include four servos that also contain autopilot processor, control
wheel-mounted elevator trim switches (copilot’s side optional), control wheel-mounted autopilot/yaw
damper disconnect and trim interrupt switch (AP/YD DISC/TRIM INTRPT), control wheel-mounted CWS
(Control Wheel Steering) switch, and a Go-Around switch mounted in the left power lever knob.

The following conditions will cause the autopilot to disconnect:
•

Electrical power failure, including pulling the AFCS SERVOS circuit breaker

•

Electrical power failure to the GMC 710 Autopilot Mode Controller, including pulling the MODE CTL
circuit breaker

•

Internal autopilot system failure

•

Malfunction of either AHRS (two fully functional AHRS are required for the autopilot to function)

•

Failure of the on-side PFD

•

Depressing the red A/P Y/D DISC/TRIM INTRPT button on the pilot’s or copilot’s (if installed)
control wheel

•

Actuating the left section of the manual electric trim split switch, pilot’s and copilot’s control wheel

•

Pushing the AP button on the autopilot mode controller when the autopilot is engaged

•

Pushing the GO AROUND button on the left power lever (non-ESP equipped airplanes)

NOTE
Pressing and holding the CWS (control wheel steering) switch on the left grip of the pilot’s control
wheel will disconnect the autopilot servos from the airplane flight controls as long as the CWS
switch is depressed. Upon release of the CWS switch, the system will synchronize to the existing
pitch and roll modes selected. Review the Cockpit Reference Guide for more information.

The autopilot may be engaged within the following ranges:
Pitch 50° nose up to 50° nose down
Roll ±75°
If the above pitch or roll limits are exceeded while the autopilot is engaged, the autopilot will disconnect.
Engaging the autopilot outside of its command limits, but within its engagement limits, will cause the
autopilot to return the aircraft within command limits. The autopilot is capable of commanding the aircraft
in the following ranges:
Pitch 20° nose up to 20° nose down
Roll ±25°, or ±30° while using a GPS lateral mode

190-00716-03 Rev. 3

The Flight Director is not designed to perform unusual attitude recoveries from attitudes outside the
following range:
Pitch 50° nose up to 50° nose down
Roll ±75°
If the above pitch or roll limits are exceeded with the flight director displayed on either PFD or the MFD,
the flight director will be removed (decluttered) from the display until the aircraft is within display limits.
ELECTRIC ELEVATOR TRIM
Electric elevator trim is standard with the G1000 system installation. The electric elevator trim can be
operated manually by the pilot using the pitch trim switches on the control wheel, or, automatically by the
autopilot. Electric Elevator trim switches are optional on the copilot’s control wheel. If pitch trim
switches are installed on the copilot’s control wheel, the pilot’s pitch trim inputs override those made by
the copilot
The ON/OFF toggle switch on the pedestal has been removed. Electric elevator trim will function if the
AFCS SERVOS circuit breaker (right side circuit breaker panel) is set and the autopilot has satisfactorily
completed a preflight test.
Pitch trim rocker switches on the pilot’s control wheel manually control the electric elevator trim system.
NOSE DN at the top of the rocker switch, when depressed causes the elevator pitch trim servo to move
the trim tab in the upward direction resulting in the nose of the airplane pitching downward. The control
column will move in the forward direction and the pitch trim wheel will move forward in the nose down
direction. Depressing NOSE UP at the bottom of the rocker switch results in the opposite of the previous
motions with the airplane nose pitching up.
Runaway or malfunctioning trim can be interrupted by pressing and holding the red A/P Y/D DISC TRIM
INTRPT switch on either control wheel. Pulling the AFCS SERVOS circuit breaker on the right side
circuit breaker panel will disable the electric elevator trim so it will not move when the TRIM INTRPT
switch is released.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY & PROTECTION (ESP)
Electronic Stability and Protection (ESP) is an optional function on a GFC-700-equipped airplane that
uses the autopilot servos to assist the pilot in maintaining the airplane in a safe flight condition within the
aircraft’s normal pitch, roll and airspeed envelopes.
Electronic Stability and Protection is invoked when the pilot allows the airplane to exceed one or more
conditions beyond normal flight defined below:
•

Pitch attitude beyond normal flight (+20°, -17°)

•

Roll attitude beyond normal flight (45°)

•

High airspeed beyond normal flight (Above 263 KIAS or .58M)

The conditions that are required for ESP to be available are:
•

Pitch and Roll servos available

•

Autopilot not engaged

•

The Global Positioning System (GPS) altitude above ground (based on TAWS terrain data base)
is more than 200 feet

•

Aircraft is within the autopilot engagement envelope (+/-50° in pitch and +/-75° in roll)

Protection for excessive pitch, roll, and high airspeed is provided when the limit thresholds are first
exceeded, which engages the appropriate servo in ESP mode at a nominal torque level to bring the
airplane back within the normal flight envelope. If the airplane deviates further from the normal flight
envelope, the servo torque will increase until the maximum torque level is reached in an attempt to return
the aircraft into the normal flight envelope. Once the aircraft returns to within the normal flight envelope,
ESP will deactivate the autopilot servos.
When the normal flight envelope thresholds have been exceeded for more than approximately 10
seconds, ESP Autolevel Mode is activated. Autolevel Mode engages the AFCS to bring the airplane
back into straight and level flight based on 0° roll angle and 0 fpm vertical speed. An aural “ENGAGING
AUTOPILOT” alert sounds and the Flight Director mode annunciation will indicate LVL for the pitch and
roll modes.
Anytime an ESP mode is active, the pilot can interrupt ESP by using either the Control Wheel Steering
(CWS) or Autopilot Disconnect (AP DISC) switch, or simply override ESP by overpowering the AFCS
servos. The pilot may also disable ESP by accessing the Multi-Function Display (MFD) AUX – SYSTEM
SETUP 2 page on the MFD and manually disabling ESP. Once the flight has ended and power is
removed from the G1000 system, ESP will default to “Enabled” on the next power-up.

PFD display symbology implemented for ESP is illustrated in Figures 16 through 18. All other indications
on the GDU displayed in the examples are to provide position reference for the ESP system symbology.
The values indicated are not representative of a condition required to activate ESP.
•

When the GDU receives information from the GIA indicating that ESP is not armed, the GDU will
not display ESP indications.

•

When the GDU receives information from the GIA indicating that ESP is armed, the GDU will
display the ESP roll limit indices.

•

The engagement and disengagement attitude limits are displayed with double hash marks on the
roll indicator depending on the aircraft attitude and whether or not ESP is active in roll. When
ESP is inactive (roll attitude within nominal limits) only the engagement limit indications are
displayed in order to reduce clutter on the roll indicator. See Figure 16 for an example of the
ESP engagement limit indications.

Once ESP becomes active in roll, the engagement limit indication that was crossed (either left or right) will
move to the lower disengagement limit indication over a period of 1 second. The opposite roll limit
remains at the engagement limit. Figure 17 shows the engagement limit indication just prior to ESP
activation (left image) and just after ESP activation (right image 1 second after ESP activation).

45° just prior to activation

If an attitude becomes extreme enough for the upper disengagement limit indication to be shown it will be
drawn in a similar fashion to the engagement limit indication. See Figure 18 for an example of the ESP
roll indication when ESP is active with an extreme roll attitude. In this case, the left roll limit is the
engagement limit and the two right roll ESP limits are the lower and upper disengagement limit
indications.

Page 123 of 139

The ESP roll limit indications are not de-cluttered when the aircraft is in an extreme attitude. ESP roll
limit indications are not shown when ESP is not configured for a given installation, ESP is not available as
determined by the active GIA, or the autopilot is engaged.

Autopilot Underspeed Protection
For aircraft that have ESP installed, the AFCS is able to detect and protect against underspeed situations
while the autopilot is engaged.
When the AFCS is engaged in a non-altitude critical mode (LVL, PIT, FLC, VS, VNV) and airspeed falls
below the minimum threshold of 100 KIAS, the AFCS automatically enters minimum airspeed mode. A
MINSPD annunciation appears above the airspeed tape, and the AFCS causes the airplane to pitch down
to maintain 100 KIAS. An aural “AIRSPEED” alert will sound once when entering non-altitude critical
Underspeed Protection.
If the AFCS is engaged in an altitude critical mode ( ALT, GS, GP and GA) and the aural stall warning is
played for more than 1 second, the AFCS will maintain a wings-level roll attitude and pitch the aircraft
down at ~1kt/sec to maintain an airspeed that will cause the aural stall warning to stop playing, plus 2
KIAS. Also, an aural “AIRSPEED” alert will sound every 5 seconds.
All Underspeed Protection modes are exited automatically when there is enough aircraft performance to
follow the originally selected flight director mode and reference.
Coupled Go-Around
ESP equipped aircraft are capable of flying fully coupled go-around maneuvers. Pressing the GA button
on the left power lever will not disengage the autopilot. Instead, the AP will attempt to capture and track
the flight director command bars. If insufficient aircraft performance is available to follow the commands,
the AFCS will enter altitude-critical Underspeed Protection mode after approximately 10 seconds. GA
mode is the only ESP-associated mode that can be engaged below 200’ AGL GPS altitude.

FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS
G1000 FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS
Flight instruments are an integrated part of the G1000 system. For system descriptions, operating
instructions, and abnormal failure indication refer to the Cockpit Reference and Pilot’s Guides.
STANDBY FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS
There are three 2 ¼ inch standby instruments that are arranged vertically
directly to the right of the pilot’s Primary Flight Display:
•

Standby attitude indicator

•

Standby altimeter

•

Standby airspeed indicator

The standby attitude indicator located at the top of the stack is normally
powered by the Triple Fed Bus. In the event of total loss of aircraft
electrical power, there is a standby battery that will power the standby
attitude indicator for at least 30 minutes.
The second instrument in the stack is a standby altimeter. It is a
mechanical instrument that requires no electrical power to display
altitude. Electrical power is used for internal instrument lighting, and for
an internal vibrator that is used to minimize indicator pointer sticking.
The vibrator is normally powered from the Triple Fed Bus. In the event
of total loss of normal aircraft electrical power, the vibrator and internal
lighting are powered by the standby battery. The standby altimeter
uses the copilot’s static system for its source of static air pressure.
The bottom instrument is a mechanical airspeed indicator. It is a
mechanical instrument that requires no electrical power to operate.
Electrical power is used for internal lighting. In normal operation, power
for standby instrument lighting comes from the Triple Fed Bus. In the
event of a total loss of aircraft electrical power, the standby battery will
power the instrument’s internal lighting. The standby airspeed indicator
uses the copilot’s static system for its source of static air pressure, and
the copilot’s pitot system for its source of impact air pressure.

ENGINE INSTRUMENTATION
Engine instruments, located in a window on the left side of the MFD, are grouped according to their
function. The G1000 engine gauges are constructed and arranged to emulate the mechanical gauges
they replaced. At the top, the ITT (Interstage Turbine Temperature) indicators and torquemeters are
used to set take-off power. Climb and cruise power are established using the torquemeters and
propeller tachometers while observing ITT limits. Gas generator (N1) operation is monitored by the gas
generator tachometers.
The lower grouping consists of the fuel flow indicators and the oil
pressure/temperature indicators.
The engine transducers send their signals to the GARMIN GEAs (Engine and Airframe LRU) which
process the signals and allow the engine parameters to be displayed on the MFD. There are two GEAs;
one for each engine. Operating on 28vdc power, both GEAs receive power from the Triple Fed Bus.
The GEAs are protected by circuit breakers located on the left side circuit breaker panel labeled GEA.
The ITT indicator gives a reading of engine gas temperature between the compressor turbine and the
power turbines. A digital indication combined with the pointer gives a resolution of 1OC.
The torquemeters give an indication in percent (%) torque being applied to the propeller.
indication combined with the pointer gives a resolution of 0.2%.

A digital

Propeller Autofeather annunciations are located adjacent the torquemeters, to the upper right of each
indicator. When the autofeather system is armed, the green ‘AFX’ annunciations will be posted.
The propeller tachometer reads directly in revolutions per minute. A digital indication combined with the
pointer gives a resolution of 10 RPM.
The N1 or gas generator tachometer is in percent of RPM, based on a figure of 37,500 RPM at 100%.
Maximum continuous gas generator speed is limited to 39,000 RPM or 104.0% N1. A digital indication
combined with the pointer gives a resolution of 0.1% RPM.
The fuel flow indicators give an indication of fuel consumption in pounds of fuel per hour. A digital
indication combined with the pointer gives a resolution of 1 lb/hr.
The oil pressure indicator displays oil pressure (in PSI). A digital indication combined with the pointer
gives oil pressure a resolution of 1 psi.
The oil temperature indicator displays oil temperature (in Degrees Celsius).
combined with the pointer gives oil temperature a resolution of 1°C

A digital indication

A propeller synchroscope, located above and between the propeller tachometers, indicates propeller
synchronization. When the propellers are operating at the same RPM, the display will show stationary
diamond symbols. As one propeller begins to turn faster than the other propeller, the diamonds will
begin to move towards the faster turning propeller and transition into an arrowhead pointing towards the
faster turning propeller. The transition to a full arrowhead is complete when the propeller speed
difference is equal to 50 RPM. This instrument aids the pilot in obtaining synchronization of the
propellers.

PROPELLER SYNCHROPHASER
A push button ON/OFF switch is located on the instrument panel below the pilot’s PFD that
turns the propeller synchrophaser ON and OFF. To turn the propeller synchrophaser ON,
push the PROP SYNC switch. A green ON annunciator will illuminate when the system is on.
To turn the propeller synchrophaser OFF, push the PROP SYNC switch.
Refer to the Systems Description section in the airplane’s original Pilot’s Operating Handbook and FAA

STANDBY BATTERY POWER SUPPLY
The G1000 installation incorporates a 24 vdc, 5 Ah L-3 Avionics model PS-835 Standby
Battery that provides electrical power for the standby attitude gyro, standby altimeter
vibrator, and internal lighting for the three standby instruments and magnetic compass
for a minimum of 30 minutes following a total loss of aircraft power including the
aircraft’s battery.
A push button switch located directly below the standby airspeed indicator controls the standby battery
power system. The switch is a push ON (switch latches in), push OFF (switch pops out) type of switch.
The system has three modes: OFF, ON, and ARM.
OFF

The system is OFF when the Standby Battery switch is not depressed. There are no
internal switch annunciators illuminated in the switch when the system is OFF.

ON (Amber)

Illuminates when the standby battery is powering the standby instruments. The Standby
Battery switch must be latched ‘IN’ and the airplane has no source of normal electrical
power for the standby battery to power the standby instruments. When the ON
annunciator is illuminated, the standby battery will provide electrical power for the three
standby instruments for at least 30 minutes.

ARM (Green) The system is armed for automatic operation when the Standby Battery switch is latched
‘IN’ and the airplane is being powered by a normal source of electrical power. Normal
power sources include the airplane’s battery, at least one generator, or external power.
During normal operations, the standby battery remains in a fully charged state by its own trickle charger,
which is powered from the electrical system through the STBY AUX BAT circuit breaker located on the
right side circuit breaker panel.

LIGHTING SYSTEMS
COCKPIT
An overhead light control panel, accessible to both pilots, incorporates a functional arrangement of all
lighting systems. Each light group has its own rheostat switch placarded BRT – OFF. The MASTER
PANEL LIGHTS – ON – OFF switch is the master switch for: PILOT PFD, STANDBY INSTRUMENT
LIGHTS, MFD, OVERHEAD PED & SUBPANEL LIGHTS, SIDE PANEL, CLOCKS, and COPILOT PFD.
PILOT PFD – Controls the brightness of the pilot’s PFD.
STANDBY INSTRUMENT LIGHTS - Controls the brightness of the internal lighting for the
standby attitude indicator, standby altimeter, and standby airspeed indicator.
MFD – Controls the brightness of the Multi-Function Display (MFD).
OVERHEAD PED & SUBPANEL LIGHTS - Controls the brightness of the backlighting of the
overhead light control panel and internal lighting of the overhead electrical gauges, throttle
quadrant backlighting, internal lighting for pedestal-mounted gauges, and the MFD Controller
panel backlighting, and the subpanel backlighting.
SIDE PANEL - Controls the brightness of the backlighting of the right side circuit breaker panel,
the left side circuit breaker panel and the fuel gauge panel.
CLOCKS – Controls the brightness of the clocks mounted in the pilot’s and copilot’s control
wheels.
COPILOT PFD – Controls the brightness of the copilot’s PFD.
Separate rheostat switches individually control the instrument indirect lights in the glareshield and
overhead map lights.

PITOT AND STATIC SYSTEM
PITOT
The pitot heads are the sources of impact air for the operation of the flight instruments.
A heated pitot mast is located on each side of the lower portion of the nose. Tubing from the left pitot
mast is connected to the pilot’s air data computer (ADC1), and tubing from the right pitot mast is
connected to the copilot’s air data computer (ADC2) and the standby airspeed indicator. The switch for
the PITOT – LEFT – RIGHT – OFF is located in the ICE PROTECTION group on the pilot’s right
subpanel.

Hawker Beechcraft B300 and B300C King Air

190-00716-03 Rev. 3

STATIC
The normal static system has two separate sources of static air. One source is connected to the pilot’s air
data computer (ADC1), and the other is connected to the copilot’s air data computer (ADC2) and the
standby instruments. Each of the normal static air lines opens to the atmosphere through two static air
ports—one on each side of the aft fuselage, four ports total.
An alternate static air line is also provided for the pilot’s air data computer (ADC1). In the event of a
failure of the pilot’s normal static air source (e.g., if ice accumulations should obstruct the static air ports),
the alternate source can be selected by lifting the spring-clip retainer off the PILOT’S EMERGENCY
STATIC AIR SOURCE valve handle, located on the right side panel, and moving the handle aft to the
ALTERNATE position. This will connect the alternate static air line to the pilot’s air data computer
(ADC1). The alternate line is open to the unpressurized area just aft of the rear pressure bulkhead.
When the alternate static air source is not needed, ensure that PILOT’S EMERGENCY STATIC AIR
SOURCE valve handle is held in the forward (NORMAL) position by the spring-clip retainer.

WARNING
THE PILOT’S AIRSPEED AND ALTIMETER INDICATIONS CHANGE WHEN THE
ALTERNATE STATIC AIR SOURCE IS IN USE. REFER TO THE AIRSPEED
CALIBRATION – ALTERNATE SYSTEM, AND THE ALTIMETER CORRECTION –
ALTERNATE SYSTEM GRAPHS IN SECTION 5, PERFORMANCE, OF THE
AIRPLANE’S ORIGINAL PILOT’S OPERATION HANDBOOK AND FAA
APPROVED AIRPLANE FLIGHT MANUAL FOR OPERATION WHEN THE
ALTERNATE STATIC AIR SOURCE IS IN USE.
There are three drain petcocks for draining the static air lines located below the side panel on the right
sidewall behind an access cover. These drain petcocks should be opened to release any trapped
moisture at each inspection interval or after exposure to visible moisture on the ground, and must be
closed after draining.
For RVSM compliant aircraft that operate in RVSM airspace, special care must be taken when inspecting
the static ports and surrounding regions during preflight inspection. The static port openings should be
smooth and round, and free of foreign material. The fuselage skin in the RVSM critical region, which is
defined by markings in the vicinity of the static ports, should have no skin defects, physical damage, or
large gaps and steps in the skin surface caused by improperly seated access panels or hatches.

GROUND COMMUNICATIONS
Ground communication is provided by the G1000 system by turning ON the airplane’s battery. COM 1
and the pilot’s audio panel will be powered. The pilot may use the airplane’s speaker and hand
microphone or a headset for communication.

SYNTHETIC VISION

General
The SVS sub system is dependent upon terrain data provided by the underlying G1000 system. If, for
some reason, the terrain data is not available from the G1000, all of the components of the SVS system
will be unavailable. The flight path marker, horizon heading, and airport signs are all sub-components of
the Synthetic Terrain display and are only available when Synthetic Terrain is enabled. Those features
are selected or de-selected using the PFD softkeys on the SVS menu.
Synthetic Terrain
The synthetic (3D) terrain display on the PFD provides a perspective view of the terrain ahead of the
aircraft showing ground features up to 30 degrees left and 35 degrees right of the airplane heading. The
terrain display is derived from the same terrain data contained in the G1000 system that is optionally used
to display terrain on the MFD map display. The terrain data has a resolution of 9 arc-seconds, this
means that the terrain elevation contours in the database are stored broken down into squares
9 arc-seconds on each side. That data is processed and smoothed by the G1000 system to provide the
synthetic terrain display. In some instances, terrain features such as lakes in mountainous areas may be
presented by the SVS system as if the lake water extends somewhat up the mountainside. This is due
to the limitations of the terrain database resolution but is not significant for the approved uses of the SVS
system.
The SVS terrain display will show land contours; large water features; and, towers and other obstacles
over 200 ft AGL (including buildings), that are included in the G1000 obstacle database. In order to
provide a clean, uncluttered PFD display, cultural features on the ground such as; roads and highways,
railroad tracks, cities, and political boundaries (state / county lines) are not displayed on the PFD even if
those features are selected for display on the MFD. The colors used to display the terrain elevation
contours are similar to those used on the MFD map. The terrain display also includes a north-south,
east-west grid to assist in orientation relative to the terrain.
The terrain display is intended to serve as an awareness tool only. It may not provide either the accuracy
or fidelity, or both, on which to solely base decisions and plan maneuvers to avoid terrain or obstacles.
Navigation must not be predicated solely upon the use of the TAWS, Terrain or Obstacle data displayed

by the G1000 SVS system.
The Terrain/Obstacle/Airport databases have an area of coverage as detailed below:
•

The terrain database has an area of coverage from North 90° Latitude to South 90° Latitude in all
longitudes.

•

The obstacle database has an area of coverage that includes the United States and Europe.

NOTE
The area of coverage may be modified, as additional terrain data sources become
available.

Obstacle and Terrain Alerts and Warnings
Obstacles and terrain displayed on the SVS system may be highlighted if an alert or warning is generated
by the G1000 Terrain or TAWS system. If an obstacle alert is presented for an obstacle that is in the
SVS field of view, the obstacle symbol on the PFD will turn yellow in color. If an obstacle warning is
generated by the G1000 system, the obstacle symbol on the PFD will turn red.
If the G1000 Terrain or TAWS system generates a terrain alert or warning, the terrain feature displayed
on the PFD will be colored yellow for an alert or red for a warning for as long as the alert remains valid.
Because the area monitored by the Terrain or TAWS system can be wider than the field of view that can
be displayed by the SVS system, it is possible to receive an obstacle or terrain audible alert for an
obstacle or terrain that is not shown on the SVS display. In those cases, the object generating the alert
will be left or right of the aircraft. Refer to the other displays in the aircraft to determine the cause of the
message.

Flight Path Marker
The SVS display includes a green circular barbed symbol called the Flight Path Marker (FPM) that
represents the current path of the airplane relative to the terrain display. The FPM is always displayed
when synthetic terrain is displayed and the aircraft ground speed exceeds 30 kt. The FPM indicates the
current lateral and vertical path of the airplane as determined by the GPS sensor. If the FPM is above
the horizon line, the airplane is climbing, and similarly if the FPM is below the horizon line, the airplane is
descending. If the airplane is flying in a crosswind, the FPM will be offset from the center of the display.
In that case, the center of the PFD airplane reference symbol indicates the airplane heading and the FPM
indicates the direction that the airplane is actually moving, taking into account the crosswind.
The FPM indicates the current path of the airplane but does not predict the future path. If aircraft
attitude, power setting, airspeed, crosswind, etc. are changed, the FPM will move to indicate the new path
resulting from those changes.
If the FPM is below the terrain or obstacle displayed behind it on the PFD, the current aircraft path will not
clear that terrain or obstacle. If the FPM is above that terrain or obstacle, the aircraft will clear the terrain
or obstacle IF, AND ONLY IF, THE CURRENT AIRCRAFT CONFIGURATION IS MAINTAINED, AND
THE AIRCRAFT PERFORMANCE WILL PERMIT YOU TO MAINTAIN THE CURRENT VERTICAL
(CLIMB) GRADIENT UNTIL PAST THE TERRAIN OR OBSTACLE.

Pathway
If PATHWAY is enabled on the SVS menu of the PFD and a defined navigation path has been entered on
the G1000, the SVS system will display a pathway, sometimes called a “highway in the sky” or HITS.
The pathway is a perspective representation of the programmed flight path. When the aircraft is well off
course, the pathway will be displayed as a number boxes floating in the sky along the programmed lateral
and vertical path. As the aircraft intercepts the programmed flight path, the number of boxes displayed
will be reduced to a maximum of four to avoid cluttering the PFD display. The pathway is only displayed
for navigation paths that are fully defined by the sensor in use. Because a fully defined lateral and
vertical path through space is not defined by them, a Pathway is not displayed for heading legs, VOR,
LOC, BC or ADF segments. When the Pathway is displayed, the color of the boxes indicates the sensor
generating the path. If the GPS sensor is in use, the boxes will be magenta colored. If the LOC sensor
is defining the path in use, the boxes will be green.
The Pathway boxes are +- 100 ft in vertical dimension and approximately +-380 ft horizontally from the
center of the box. The Pathway presentation is intended only to aid the pilot in awareness of the
programmed flight path location relative to the airplane’s current position. The pathway is not intended for
use as a primary reference in tracking the navigation path.
If a GPS based descent profile has been programmed either on the G1000 flight plan page or as part of
an approach or STAR, the descent will be displayed by the Pathway. Climb paths are never displayed
by the Pathway. If a profile requires a climb, the Pathway will be displayed as a level segment at the
higher of the altitude defined by the programmed path or the G1000 altitude selector.

Traffic
If traffic that is within the SVS field of view is detected by the G1000 system, a symbol will be displayed
on the PFD indicating the direction and relative altitude of the traffic. The traffic will be displayed as a
white diamond unless it generates a traffic alert. Traffic that causes an alert will be displayed as a solid
yellow circle accompanied by a yellow TRAFFIC annunciator to the right of top of the airspeed display
tape.

Horizon line
The SVS display includes an always visible white horizon line that represents the true horizon. Terrain
will be presented behind the horizon line, and terrain shown above the horizon line is above the current
aircraft altitude. Terrain that is shown below the horizon line is below the aircraft altitude.

Horizon Heading
A heading scale may be displayed on the PFD horizon line, if selected by the pilot. The heading marks
are spaced in even 30 degree increments and are presented just above the horizon line with tic marks
that intersect the horizon line. The horizon heading will correspond to that presented by the HSI.

190-00716-03 Rev. 3

Because the horizon heading is only displayed in 30 degree increments, it should only be used for
general heading awareness and not be used to establish the aircraft heading.

Airport Signs and runway highlight
If APTSIGNS is selected, a “sign post” along with a representation of the runways will be plotted on the
SVS display for nearby airports that are contained in the G1000 airport database. The signpost will
become visible when you are within approximately 15nm of the airport. The text identifier for the airport
will be displayed inside the airport sign when the aircraft reaches approximately 8 nm from the airport.
Once the aircraft reaches approximately 4.5 nm from the airport, the airport sign will be removed but the
runways presentation will remain. If an approach to a specific runway has been loaded and activated,
that runway will be highlighted on the SVS display.
When on an approach, the highlight for the approach runway will be considerably larger than “normal” to
assist in visually acquiring the runway. The oversized highlight will automatically shrink around the
runway depiction so that the runway is proportionally displayed when the aircraft is within approximately
½ nm of the threshold. Runway highlighting is displayed even if APTSIGNS are turned off.

TAWS AND GPWS
Refer to the GARMIN Pilot’s Guide and Cockpit Reference Guide, P/N 190-01343-00 and 190-01344-00
Rev. B or later FAA accepted revision for complete detailed descriptions of the GARMIN G1000 TAWS
and GPWS system functions and operating instructions.
Most of the G1000 Class A TAWS and GPWS functions depend upon either GPS or radar (radio) altitude
to function properly. The Altitude Voice Callout (VCO) GPWS function is one of the few that may use
both altitudes for normal operation. Because of the unique functional nature of the VCO function, its
description is contained in this section.
VCO Description
The advisory aural Voice Callouts (VCO) are part of the TAWS GPWS functionality. In Class A TAWS
configurations, aural altitude callouts “Five Hundred,” “Four Hundred,” “Three Hundred,” “Two Hundred,”
and “One Hundred” are generated based on inputs from the radar altimeter and GPS altitude. When the
aircraft is more than 5 NM from an airport, the VCO messages are triggered solely on radar altitude and
will not function if radar altitude is unavailable.
Inside of 5 NM to an airport, the callouts are based on the aircraft’s GPS altitude above the runway
threshold as obtained from the G1000 aviation database. Loss of GPS altitude will cause TAWS to
become unavailable. If TAWS is not available, and radar altitude is available, VCO messages will be
derived strictly from radar altitude. If TAWS and radar altitude are both unavailable, VCO is inoperative.
In Class B TAWS configurations, VCO issues the “Five Hundred” aural message only . The messages
are based only on GPS altitude, even if the aircraft has an operable radar altimeter. VCO messages are
not available when the system status annunciations shown below are posted.

VCO callouts are inactive at the initialization of the TAWS-A or TAWS-B system. When the aircraft’s
height above terrain exceeds 675 feet, the function becomes enabled and is provided during all flight
phases. Alerts are issued, one time only, when the height above terrain becomes less than 500 feet
down to 100 feet (TAWS-A), at which time the VCO is disabled until the aircraft climbs at least 175 above
the altitude associated with the last VCO callout that was issued. VCO alerts cannot be inhibited in any
TAWS configuration.
