Garmin Aviation Training Team to Host Oshkosh Seminars
After successful inaugural training seminars at EAA Oshkosh AirVenture 2015, and a lot of positive feedback, we’re excited to announce the Garmin Pilot Training Team will be returning to Oshkosh this year to provide a series of seminars for our GTN touchscreen series and G500/G600 glass flight display operations.
This year, our team will be presenting three 1-day courses to explore the navigation and terminal procedure capabilities available on the GTN touchscreen series. These seminars use real-world scenarios to teach effective and efficient flight operations, with an emphasis on flight planning and instrument procedures. Each student will receive hands-on experience working with a desktop training kiosk equipped with a GTN 750, GTN 650 and G600 glass flight display.
Training topics will include:
- Creating and editing flight plans
- Quickly accessing flight-critical information, including waypoint, fuel and trip planning data
- Using the Direct-To and OBS functions
- Creating User-defined Waypoints and Holds
- Loading and performing departure, arrival and approach procedures
- Selecting and viewing electronic aeronautical navigation products (charts)
These single-day courses cost $99 each and will be held Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday, July 26-28, from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Hilton Garden Inn on the Oshkosh airfield. Lunch will be provided on the patio overlooking the airfield, and each participant will receive a free 3-month IFR premium subscription to the Garmin Pilot app ($25 value), as well as a $50 credit to be used towards future Garmin pilot training events. Class sizes are limited to 12 participants, so sign up today by visiting our website.
