King Air Owners See Savings with G1000® Retrofit Platinum Package

Garmin International Inc., a unit of Garmin Ltd. (NASDAQ: GRMN), the
global leader in satellite navigation, announced today the King Air
Platinum Package for King Air C90, 200 and B200 owners who place an
order for the retrofit G1000 integrated flight deck by November 30,
2008. The Platinum Package gives a substantial savings on the most
popular G1000 options: Synthetic Vision Technology (SVT), Garmin
Chartview™ that displays Jeppesen charts, and GRC/GRT XM radio remote
control. The Platinum Package was announced at the National Business
Aviation Association Convention in Orlando, Florida, October 6-8, 2008.

“The King Air C90 and 200 are the first aircraft to be eligible for a
G1000 retrofit, and customers have jumped at the chance to have
Garmin-glass in the flight deck of the aircraft they already know and
love flying,” said Gary Kelley, Garmin’s vice president of marketing.
“Throughout the King Air 200 STC program, we’ve gone to great lengths to
ensure that when completed it will include common King Air
configurations such as Black Hawk engines and the STC for full RVSM
certification. Pilots who look at the features of the G1000 retrofit
realize it’s a tremendous bang-for-the buck, not to mention a huge leap
forward in terms of safety of flight and situational awareness.”

The King Air G1000 retrofit flight deck is the industry’s first G1000
retrofit avionics package. It integrates all primary flight, navigation,
communication, terrain, traffic, weather and engine instrumentation
system (EIS) on a large 15-inch multi-function display (MFD) and two
10.4-inch primary flight displays (PFD). The G1000 retrofit system
includes Garmin’s GFC™ 700 three axis, fully digital, dual channel, fail
passive automatic flight control system (AFCS). The GFC 700 has features
not typically found in this class of aircraft like coupled wide area
augmentation system (WAAS) approaches, coupled vertical navigation and
flight level change (FLC).

The King Air Platinum Package’s most popular feature, SVT, presents a 3D
depiction of terrain, obstacles and traffic on the G1000’s PFD so that
the avionics panel replicates what pilots would see outside the cockpit
on a clear day. Land, water and sky are clearly differentiated with
shading and textures that are similar to the topographical colors found
on the MFD moving map. SVT works seamlessly to alert pilots of potential
ground hazards by displaying terrain and obstacles which pose a threat
to the aircraft with appropriate TAWS alert coloring, as well as voice
alerts. SVT also includes pathways (or Highway-In-The-Sky) that are
depicted as 3D “flying rectangles” and help pilots stay on course when
flying en route legs, VNAV legs, GPS/WAAS vertical approach procedures,
ILS approach procedures, and arrival and departure procedures. SVT on
the King Air 200 will be available immediately upon STC, and an
amendment to the King Air C90 STC will follow to provide SVT capability.

Garmin Chartview helps simplify operations, enhances situational
awareness and increases safety during flight. With Chartview, the
aircraft’s position is overlaid on an electronic version of Jeppesen’s
charts and airport diagrams. Customers ordering the Platinum Package
will receive a one-year free subscription to Chartview.

The third feature of the Platinum Package is the GRC/GRT XM radio remote
control, which manages the GDL 69A’s XM entertainment features like
volume, channel selection by channel, and channel selection by category.
The bi-directional remote controls the audio from anywhere in the cabin,
and also displays the XM radio information directly on the remote, such
as the song that is currently playing. XM Satellite Radio provides
170-plus channels of music, news, talk, sports and information.

The King Air Platinum Package is available for $9,995 for King Air C90,
200 and B200 owners who place an order for the retrofit G1000 integrated
flight deck by November 30, 2008. The Platinum Package is a substantial
savings over the usual $28,000 retail price for these three options.

Garmin was awarded supplemental type certification (STC) for the G1000
flight deck in the King Air C90A/GT in November 2007, and expects to
receive the STC for the King Air 200 and B200 in early 2009. Garmin has
established a select group of authorized G1000 retrofit dealers to sell
and install the G1000 on the King Air, and a complete list is available
at www8.garmin.com/buzz/g1000.
