Olathe, KS, with certification targeted for late 2018/early 2019. “With the support of valuable
MRO partners like Duncan Aviation, the order backlog for the G5000 flight deck upgrade for the Citation Excel and XLS continues to grow,” says Carl Wolf, Garmin’s vice president of Aviation Sales and Marketing. “Having the G5000- equipped Citation XLS flight test vehicle on static display at NBAA in Orlando garnered exceptional customer interest, and we are looking forward to bringing this modification to the market early next year.” The G5000 integrated flight deck
modernization program for the Citation Excel and Citation XLS includes a dual multi-sensor flight management system (FMS) and three high-resolution 14-inch flight displays
situated alongside dual touchscreen controllers. Intuitive menu structures contribute to the ease of operation and straightforward user interface that gives pilots useful information at their fingertips to include weather, synthetic vision, electronic flight charts and aircraft synoptics. It will offer lower cost of operation, exceed modern airspace initiatives and solve parts obsolescence among the Citation Excel/XLS with zero- time avionics. “Duncan Aviation is looking
forward to being able to bring this upgrade to our customers, and operators are expressing a lot of interest in the system,” says Jeff Simmons, a Duncan Aviation Avionics sales representative. “We still have a limited number of Early Adopter deposit opportunities
available through Duncan Aviation with a variety of incentives, but we encourage operators thinking about the upgrade to commit soon.”
