INTRODUCTION
1 INTRODUCTION
In flight schools, flying clubs and aircraft rental organizations, pilots are often required to learn how to operate the various
types and makes of avionics installed in the rental fleet. In most cases, no specific training is provided on this equipment
other than for rudimentary operation and minimum functions; in some cases no training is provided at all.
In modern aircraft, a number of new navigation techniques and pieces of equipment are available that are designed to
enhance the safety of flight operations in visual and instrument meteorological conditions. Advances in navigation technology
can provide the greatest benefits in situational awareness and help reduce the cost of flight operations by allowing more direct
routes and simplified approach procedures.
Of all of these advances, none of them alone can bring about a major change in the accident rate of general aviation aircraft.
Pilot training and periodic evaluation are key to realizing the safety benefits of new technology and reducing accident rates.
The combination of technology and pilot training will help increase safety, lower insurance costs, and improve the public
perception of general aviation.
1.1 OVERVIEW
The enclosed sample syllabi and lesson plans are designed to be incorporated into existing flight training/aircraft checkout/
recurrent qualification programs.
The syllabi and lesson plans are valid for both GTN 750 series Garmin avionics. There are 3 main training types that this
material may be used for: home study, flight checkout, and recurrent.
The home study portion is designed to prepare the pilot for use of the avionics and to maximize the flight training
segment that follows. This part of the materials is for use with any pilot who plans to fly aircraft equipped with GTN 750
avionics. It can be incorporated in any stage of pilot training including: private pilot, instrument, commercial, as well as
aircraft checkouts, recurrent training, instrument proficiency checks (IPCs), and flight reviews.
The flight training segments emphasize scenario-based training. These flights are designed to be cross-country flights
resembling normal flight operations. The en-route segment is ideal for standard air work and provides an opportunity to train
a pilot in both VFR and simulated IFR conditions quickly. It challenges the pilot’s ability to respond to a suddenly increased
workload while testing his or her ability to properly use the avionics systems.
The recurrent training portion uses the same sample enclosed materials for use in conjunction with insurance qualifications,
IPCs, or flight reviews and is equally well suited for each. The structure remains the same and is based around the home study
review of the avionics in preparation for the flight segment. It encourages use of all system capabilities which, depending on
the pilot’s typical flight operations, may not be used in the normal course of the flight.
These lessons are only sample lesson plans and are designed to be used in conjunction with other programs. Suggestions
and recommendations are welcome and will be taken into consideration in future document revisions.
Disclaimer: These documents are samples only and are provided solely as tools to help Certified Flight Instructors
develop their own training programs. It is also the sole responsibility of the CFI and pilot in training to ensure that
training is completed to an appropriate level of proficiency.

Although such tools offer numerous safety and operational advantages, it should be noted that increased technical
capabilities often tempt pilots to operate outside of their personal (or even legal) limits. The availability of GPS and moving
map systems, coupled with traffic and near real-time weather information in the cockpit, may lead pilots to believe they

question lies in how well the pilot understands the information, its limitations and how best to integrate this data into the
ADM process.
Items such as TIS provide a strong aid to locating traffic in a VFR environment, yet they should not be a substitute for “see
and avoid” technique. A pilot who receives a TIS Traffic Alert should visually identify the other traffic and react accordingly.

rate. Instead, the pilot should monitor the TIS data continuously in an effort to visually acquire traffic at the maximum
distance.
NEXRAD weather data, coupled with the METAR reporting capability of most systems, is best used for in-flight planning
and deviation strategy development. By continuously monitoring the weather situation in the cockpit, the pilot can make
better choices about diverting to other airports and/or changing the route of flight. As the pilot becomes more familiar with
the system(s) and is able to correlate the data presentation with the actual weather environment more accurately, NEXRAD
will come to enhance his or her decision making process and further the safety of flight.

situational awareness and in helping to reduce the navigational workload when deviating from an established flight plan.
Many pilots focus on the need to enter a waypoint first before they deviate. In reality, pilots should refer to the map display
when possible and commence a turn-away from the dangerous situation (eg. thunderstorm) while notifying ATC of the

on resuming navigation to the destination and entering the needed waypoints. It is also important to note that pilots should
consider having a back-up or secondary means to navigate or communicate in the event of a primary equipment failure.

process, the key is planning as far ahead as possible to maximize the utility of the information at hand. This ability to “stay
ahead of the airplane” when referring to managing flight performance is of equal value and force in using modern avionics.
As the old saying goes, “follow the six P’s; Proper Prior Planning Prevents Poor Performance.”
