The D1 Pocket Panel is a true artificial horizon based on the same technology that drives Dynon’s Electronic Flight Instrument Systems (EFIS).

A high-quality, highly sensitive GPS receiver is also built into the D1 to provide GPS ground speed, altitude, vertical speed, and ground track for enhanced flight situational awareness.
The D1 Pocket Panel is not a smartphone or tablet app, or a GPS-derived “simulated instrument panel.” Unlike those consumer devices, the D1 is a dedicated avionics instrument. With a real AHRS, and designed and calibrated for in-cockpit use, you can rely on it to give you accurate flight information. It will be on and ready when you
need it; it isn’t going to switch away from your attitude indicator to display a calendar reminder!

Garmin® Unveils the GDL 88 Series
The first dual-link ADS-B solution for Certified Aircraft

The GDL 88 Series is the first, dual-link solution for certified aircraft that not only provides a path to meet the ADS-B “Out” requirements for many aircraft owners, but also brings subscription-free weather and advanced traffic display to the cockpit. With the GDL 88, Garmin provides a turnkey solution for many aircraft types. Not only does this versatile unit provide both ADS-B “Out” and “In” capability for aircraft operating in U.S. Airspace and below 18,000 feet, but it is also able to receive on both 1090 MHz and 978 MHz UAT frequencies. That means it can link with these other transmitter formats within air-to-air range – and provide the most comprehensive display of ADS-B “Out” equipped traffic targets in the vicinity, regardless of your proximity to a ground station uplink. This all adds up to enhanced flight safety for aircraft equipped with Garmin’s dual-link ADS-B transceiver.

Initial deliveries of the GDL 88 series are expected to begin in Q4 2012.
