OLATHE, Kan. – Garmin International Inc. in Olathe, Kan., is introducing the G700 TXi touchscreen avionics flight display for Cessna Citation business jets. The G700 TXi meets the certification requirements of Part 23 Class IV and Part 25 transport category aircraft.
The initial supplemental type certificate (STC) for the G700 TXi flight display will be approved for select Cessna Citation II/SII and Citation V aircraft, is available from JETTECH, and can be installed across the Garmin dealer network.
This certification of the G700 TXi is composed of a single or dual 10.6-inch flight display with a bright, LCD touchscreen design and features dual concentric knobs.
Because the G700 TXi is paired with dual GTN 650/750 avionics touchscreen navigators, pilots receive flight management system (FMS) functionality through an intuitive touchscreen interface. The G700 TXi also integrates with these navigators, including coupled LPV/WAAS approach guidance, as well as the option to display vertical navigation (VNAV) guidance to fly complex RNAV arrival procedures.
