What do some fighter jets, light business jets, turboprops and even Joby Aviation’s eVTOL all have in common? They all use, or plan to use, the Garmin G3000 or G5000 glass cockpit! The Garmin G3000 and G5000 are used in twenty-three aircraft models, and manufacturers have announced plans to use them in a half dozen other models. Now there’s a new source of information for pilots flying these Max Trescott's G3000 and G5000 Glass Cockpit Handbook! Max Trescott uses a narrative approach to explaining the G3000 and G5000 from a pilot’s perspective in ways that both beginners and experts can understand. He starts by describing the hardware, including the displays and touchscreen controllers, and then describes how to use each function, including the radios, programming flight plans and instrument approaches, and using the autopilot and electronic checklists. He also teaches the data link weather products available through SiriusXM, ADS-B FIS-B weather, and Garmin Connext Weather. Throughout the book, you’ll find practical tips, gleaned from the industry’s most experienced glass cockpit instructors, on how to use different features. Pilots may want to keep a copy of the book in the cockpit and use the book’s detailed Index, so they can quickly look up how to use a feature. The book is 312 pages and includes 367 color images. The biggest difference between the G3000 and G5000 is the former is designed for smaller and lighter Part 23 aircraft, and the latter is designed to meet the more stringent Part 25 regulations which apply to the design of larger aircraft, including the transport aircraft used by the airlines. Fortunately for pilots, the user interface for the G3000 and G5000 is nearly identical, since the systems share much of the same software code base. The G3000 and G5000’s touchscreen interface leverages many of the user interface concepts used in the Garmin GTN 650 and GTN 750, so pilots using those systems can also benefit from reading the book.
