To get the most out if the G1000, I enrolled on an online tutorial course with Kings Schools.
G1000 ONLINE SIMULATOR FULL
The G1000 as a system is incredible such that it has sufficient capacity to act as full Electronic Flight Instrument System and Flight Management Computer for some light passenger jets. The exception was terrain and weather overlay information (usually an optional extra with Garmin). That worked a lot better and gave most of the functionality within the aircraft. To get more functionality in the G1000 using FSX, I linked the Simionic G1000 PFD & MFD already on my IPad with FSX. I also purchased a budget Logitech joystick.
G1000 ONLINE SIMULATOR SOFTWARE
The best software I could find to add the DA-42 onto flight sim was the Alabeo DA-42. With FSX, I needed to download a DA-42 addon – the aircraft I was doing my MEIR on which did not come as standard on FSX. For that reason, this blog post will be based on FSX. Now, there are newer versions of flight sim and other alternatives such as X Plane, but I am not familiar with those. To make that work, I dug out and recycled my ancient Flight Simulator X (FSX). I tried to use what I had as I was trying to keep costs down. This was enough for my Multi-Engine Piston Rating (MEP).įor IR though, I needed to take the practice a step further to practice the various profiles and manoeuvres I would have to use. The Simionic G1000 PFD app is stand alone, and you can use it in isolation on your iPad to get used to reading the various nomenclature – speed tape, finding your way around how the information is presented, etc. To get used to this, I downloaded (for the iPad) the G1000 PFD (and later MFD) from Simionic. I did my PPL and hour building on steam gauges. One of the first items that was ‘new’ when I started my MEIR was using the glass cockpit of the DA42.
