Flying becomes fun and easy with G1000!
Cindtronix aircraft are equipped with the G1000 avionics suite.
Consolidating all primary flight, navigation, and engine information onto two crisp, 10" LCD displays, the G1000 affords all pilots with the ultimate situational awareness and safety.
Below are listed just a few of the many safety features G1000 offers:
» Traffic Information Services (TIS): The G1000 alerts you of nearby traffic to help you visually sight other aircraft.
» Terrain Awareness and Warning System (TAWS): TAWS aurally and visually alerts you of terrain and obstructions.
» NEXRAD Radar Data: The G1000 system graphically depicts hazardous weather, such as thunderstorms, via NEXRAD on the moving map display.
» METAR/TAF Uplink: It is possible to retrieve any available METAR or TAF weather report via instant uplink on the G1000 system.
» SafeTaxiTM: The G1000 database includes over 650 airport diagrams overlaid directly on the Multi Function Display.

Checkout Procedures:
Cindtronix utilizes the Garmin G1000 simulator software and the King G1000 transition course for transitioning pilots.
The following syllabus is used for those students/renters who wish to transition to the G1000 series:
Lab 1 - What the G1000 Does for You
Lab 2 - Navigation Made Easy
Lab 3 - Managing G1000 Systems
Lab 4 - Coping When Things Go Wrong
Lab 5 - Putting it All Together in the Air
Through the use of FAA/Industry Training Standards (FITS), our G1000 transition curriculum is designed to accommodate pilots with varied levels of experience. The goal of FITS is to ensure that pilots learn to safely, competently, and efficiently operate a technically advanced aircraft (TAA), such as the G1000 equipped Skyhawks and Skylanes. This is accomplished through the use of scenarios, rather than traditional task-based training.
During the checkout, the following scenarios will be tested:
» Tuning radios and transponder
» Slow flight, steep turns, stalls, unusual attitude recovery
» Flight to airport at least 20 mins away, followed by a flight to an airport at least 30 mins away
» Diversions
» Short and soft field landings
» Flapless landings
» Failures of ADC/AHRS, using standby instruments for navigation and landing
» ATC assisted letdown through a cloud layer to VMC with autopilot
