Put It on Autopilot

Our Diamond DA40 XL also includes the GFC 700, the first entirely new autopilot designed and certified for the 21st century. The GFC 700 is capable of using all data available to G1000 to navigate, including the ability to maintain airspeed references and optimize performance over the entire airspeed envelope.

Enhance Situational Awareness

G1000 seamlessly integrates built-in terrain and navigation databases, providing a clear, concise picture of where you are and where you’re heading. Using information from the built-in terrain and U.S. obstacles databases, G1000 displays color coding to graphically alert you when proximity conflicts loom ahead. In addition, you can augment G1000 with optional Class-B Terrain Awareness and Warning System (TAWS) for an extra margin of safety in the air.

Add Weather, Radio and Traffic

Data is provided through XM Satellite Radio's XM WX Weather Service using location-specific WxWorx information. XM's two powerful S-band geostationary satellites, positioned over the east and west coasts, deliver seamless, near real-time coverage at any altitude across the continental United States. The weather suite's high resolution color graphics provide detailed NEXRAD and METARs data, as well as current reports on precipitation, lightning, winds-aloft, echo tops, TFRs and more.
