ALL GARMIN AVIONICS SOLUTION ANNOUNCED FOR CITATIONJET CJ2

CJ2 Upgrade

MODERN. RELIABLE. TAILORED FOR YOUR CJ2.

Update your Cessna Citation CJ2 with an all Garmin retrofit, and add a revolution in flight technology at your fingertips. You’ll fly with modern, faster, sharper TXi™ flight displays. TXi EIS that integrates with your turbofan engines to help reduce pilot workload. A GFC™ 600 autopilot that adds safety features and fully-coupled vertical navigation (VNAV) capabilities. And a state-of-the-art weather radar that automatically adjusts scans to help you better understand weather activity along your route. Plus, you’ll modernize your aircraft to increase your reliability and reduce avionics maintenance concerns — so you can extend the life of your airframe.

G600 TXi FLIGHT DISPLAYS

G600 TXi flight displays revolutionize how you view flight information, with a touchscreen interface and advanced PFD/MFD capabilities. Primary flight data is displayed with a wide horizon for optimal awareness in instrument conditions. The PFD offers a map view on the HSI to show NEXRAD imagery and weather inputs from ADS-B and SiriusXM® datalinks1 — as well as SafeTaxi® airport diagrams, traffic, terrain and more. Garmin SVT™ synthetic vision technology provides a 3D virtual reality-like view of terrain and water features, obstacles and more to give you a realistic visual frame of reference — especially in IFR, marginal VFR or nighttime conditions. Additionally, new CJ2-specific features include stabilized approach cues and audible V-speed callouts to make flying single pilot even easier.

Plus, each display is pilot-configurable into 60/40 PFD/MFD, so you can view terrain and obstacles, airspace boundaries, navaids, flight plan routing, georeferenced FliteCharts® and more (optional Jeppesen® electronic charts are also available). You can also view a wide range of weather solutions — from weather radar returns via a GWX™ 8000 auto mode-enabled radar to Stormscope® lightning detection to animated NEXRAD imagery from various satellite or ADS-B ground network links1. And you can integrate a variety of traffic-alerting technologies — ADS-B “In” traffic depicted with TargetTrend™ relative motion technology and TerminalTraffic™ airport surface monitoring as well as active traffic surveillance systems.

GTN™ Xi NAVIGATORS

GTN Xi navigators add next-generation GPS/NAV/COMM capabilities to your CJ2. These WAAS/SBAS-certified GPS receivers enable GPS-guided LPV glidepath approaches down to ILS-comparable minimums as low as 200’ — as well as advisory Visual Approach guidance to even more runways. GTN Xi supports and enables coupled descent VNAV when paired with your GFC 600 autopilot — and even lets you easily create and execute holding patterns over a published or user-defined waypoint. Graphical routing lets you visualize your entire flight plan, including departures, arrivals, visual/instrument approaches and more. And for simplified IFR routings, you can view airway segments available from a waypoint as well as corresponding exit options. You can also wirelessly load flight plans and database updates with an optional Connext® link — and even display radar returns on GTN 750Xi when paired with your GWX 8000 weather radar.

TXi EIS

TXi EIS replaces the legacy EIS solution and features a newly refined gauge layout and user interface. Manually determining power settings are a thing of the past with EIS-generated or user-selected N1 targets for takeoff, go-around and max continuous thrust settings. N1 reference bugs, which take into account engine and anti-ice status as well as outside air temperature, are computed automatically and integrated into the TXi EIS display. Pilot-defined N1 reference bugs are also available in the system. Additionally, CJ2 pilots can take advantage of integrated start timers on the TXi EIS display, helping pilots respect transient engine limitations during the engine start.

GFC 600 AUTOPILOT

The GFC 600 digital autopilot delivers CJ2 pilots superior in-flight characteristics and new operational capabilities such as VNAV descents, fully coupled go-around capability, and much more. Garmin’s Electronic Stability and Protection (ESP) for the CJ2 takes into account flap position and the aircraft stick shaker to more precisely activate underspeed protection and other ESP capabilities. Guidance from the GTN 750Xi allows the GFC 600 to fly fully-coupled VNAV descents leading to a wide range of precision, non-precision and GPS-guided approaches –– as well as holds, procedure turns, and more. The CJ2 solution also features Emergency Descent Mode (EDM). In the event of a loss of cabin pressurization, EDM is capable of automatically descending the aircraft to a preset altitude without pilot intervention to help avert hypoxic situations. A color display and flight level change (FLC) mode round out new GFC 600 features on a modernized mode controller for this installation.

GWX 8000 STORMOPTIX™ WEATHER RADAR WITH AUTO MODE

Weather radar operation has always been a difficult and technical task. Auto mode takes that stress away. Set the range, and the radar automatically adjusts tilt and gain settings to accurately profile weather cells, so you can determine the actual size, shape and hazardous storm cell activity — and more accurately assess threat potential so you can deviate and avoid. Plus, it offers zero blind range to aid in the identification of storm cells in close proximity, lightning and hail prediction, turbulence detection and enhanced ground clutter suppression.

The radar’s high-definition color palette can display up to 4 times as many colors as traditional weather radars, providing a far clearer depiction of where you can find holes in the weather or what you must avoid completely. It also integrates with TXi flight displays and GTN 750Xi navigators for display radar return display — and, when equipped with dual TXi PFDs and GTN 750Xi navigators, it allows both pilots to view different radar returns for the ultimate in situational awareness.

GI 275 STANDBY FLIGHT INSTRUMENT

Your updated panel is completed with a GI 275 standby flight instrument that features optional SVT™ synthetic vision. The bright, high-resolution touchscreen is sunlight-readable and maximizes the available space with an edge-to-edge display. And it provides up to 60 minutes of backup battery power, so you’ll feel confident knowing you’ll get home.

PLANESYNC™ TECHNOLOGY

Managing a jet is hard work. It takes time, effort and preparation to keep your aircraft ready for flight. PlaneSync helps simplify the complexities of aircraft management. Using 4G LTE cellular or Wi-Fi® connectivity provided by the GDL® 60 datalink, it interfaces with supported avionics and devices to let you keep tabs on your aircraft from virtually anywhere3,4.

Forget juggling database update cycles or transferring databases to data cards. With PlaneSync technology, your avionics and databases are kept ready to go whenever you are. You can even check your system’s update status remotely via your Garmin Pilot™ smart-device app. Plus, you can determine whether your aircraft is serviced and ready to go. When appropriately equipped, PlaneSync allows you to check4 Hobbs and flight times, fuel quantity, battery voltage, OAT, oil temperature and aircraft GPS location5 via the aircraft dashboard on Garmin Pilot.

And you can save vital time on flight planning by using flight apps such as Garmin Pilot and ForeFlight on your mobile device to create and file your flight plan from the comfort of your home or office. Then, once at the airport, you can quickly upload the waypoint data from your device to your avionics. In no time, you’re ready to activate your flight plan and go flying.
