"Written by a Master CFI, this book makes it
easy for you to quickly become an expert on
operating and programming the G1000 system in
any aircraft.
There is a revolution sweeping through general aviation. Two years ago, few aircraft shipped with glass cockpits. Now, nearly 100% of all new GA aircraft ship with glass cockpits, most of them Garmin G1000TM. Whether you’re an owner, potential owner, or renter, you’ll want to become expert at flying these exciting new aircraft and benefit from their enhanced safety.
Max Trescott, a Master CFI who’s trained and taught extensively in glass cockpit aircraft, takes a narrative approach to explaining the G1000 in ways that both beginners and experts can understand. Not only is every system feature explained, but information on when and why you’d use a particular function are also included. The book is loaded with illustrations and “tips” gleaned from leading glass cockpit instructors around the country.

You'll learn about the PFD and MFD displays,
audio panel, programming the GPS, electrical
systems, using the autopilot and dealing with
emergencies. A detailed discussion of
instrument approaches, integrated with use of
the autopilot, will help you become a pro.
Advanced features, optional in some aircraft,
such as TIS and TAS traffic monitoring systems,
Stormscopes, and Terrain Awareness Warning
Systems (TAWS) are discussed in detail. You'll
also learn to use all of the data link weather
features like NEXRAD radar, satellite images,
freezing level, winds aloft, AIRMETs, SIGMETS,
TFRs, and METARs available through XM Satellite
weather.
Instrument pilots will find the book valuable, since it explains how to fly instrument approaches with the G1000, and integrates the proper use of an autopilot throughout the approach. Data link weather and Stormscopes® are popular G1000 option, and the book details how the weather data is gathered and delivered to the plane, so that you’ll understand the limitations and proper use of the information. Someday, everyone will fly these aircraft, and Max Trescott’s G1000 Glass Cockpit Handbook gets you started now.
Soft cover, 244 pages, 40 in color, illustrated with more than 275 computer screen shots and photographs, glossary and index."
