Garmin Certifies the G1000 All-Glass Cockpit for the Diamond
DA40
Talk about timing... as one of the last seminars of Fridays
DiamondFest event was getting underway, (about the G1000, no less)
Garmin announced that they had received an STC from the FAA for the
DA40 Diamond Star. Diamond Prez Peter Maurer immediately shared the
news with several dozen DiamondFest attendees, including ANN's Jim
Campbell. The STC authorizes Diamond Aircraft Company to begin
delivering DA40s equipped with Garmin’s revolutionary G1000
integrated avionics system — the DA40’s premium
avionics option.
