Ride along with Richard L. Collins for some real-world experience on the G1000 integrated avionics system.  This video highlights the G1000's advanced display technology and user-friendly interactivity.  Collins shows how to best use the system both in the air and on the ground and includes a section showing how the system functions in flight during a GPS approach.  See how the terrain proximity, lightning detection, Traffic Information Service and XM weather can significantly improve safety and enhance situational awareness.  Learn how the battery and display redundancy of the G1000 allows the system to continue functioning after multiple component failures.  Filmed primarily in Cessna aircraft, Collins also demonstrates the integrated autopilot on the Columbia 400, and the fundamental skills learned here will apply to any G1000 equipped aircraft.  Explore this system through a pilot's-eye-view and discover what the G1000 glass cockpit technology has to offer.
