Garmin will continue with our virtual training options through June 2021 and then we intend to resume in-person training in August at our Garmin Headquarters in Olathe, Kansas. The health and safety of our customers and associates remain paramount to Garmin. If the pandemic continues into the fall, we will communicate options in advance to all registered attendees and again increase virtual training options. This training catalog provides information on pilot training options, including a description of selfstudy materials, eLearning courses and instructor-led training offered for the GTNTM, G500/G600, G500/G600/G700 TXiTM, G3X TouchTM and Garmin integrated flight decks. The Aviation Training team provides comprehensive instruction for Garmin's most advanced avionics currently being installed in general aviation, business aviation, and helicopter, military and experimental aircraft. Our goal is for pilots to achieve the highest level of confidence while operating their Garmin avionics. We intend to teach all pilots the full capabilities of their avionics systems and offer insight on the preferred methods of operation and integration. Garmin pilot guides, PC trainers and eLearning courses provide foundational knowledge about the equipment. Our virtual training courses build on this knowledge and experience, using scenario-based training and interaction through trainers. The following trainers are downloadable: GTN, G500/G600, G500/G600/G700 TXi and GPS navigators. Some G1000® NXi trainers are available for purchase and installation. We also provide hands-on kiosk experience with our in-person training classes. These training opportunities will help pilots integrate Garmin avionics capabilities into their flight experience. Your Garmin Pilot Training Team The Garmin Pilot Training team comprises highly experienced instructors with diverse backgrounds. The instructors have experience in Part 61 and Part 141 training environments, corporate flight departments and airlines, as well as military flight operations training to include initial, transition and tactical instruction. Each has instructor experience operating Garmin avionics and in teaching the transition from analog instruments to technically advanced aircraft. The instructors have immediate access to the entire Garmin team of engineers, flight test personnel, pilot operations specialists, field support specialists and OEM support experts. 2021 PILOT TRAINING CATALOG | 3 PRICING AND WINGS CREDIT eLearning Courses Course Duration Price GTNTM Essentials 2.0 3 hrs $124.95 TXiTM Essentials 2 hrs $49.00 G1000HTM NXi Fundamentals 3 hrs $74.95 G1000H NXi Advanced-IFR 5 hrs $94.95 G1000® NXi Fundamentals 3 hrs $94.95 G1000 NXi Essentials 5 hrs $145.95 G3000® 5 hrs $249.00 G5000® Essentials 2.0 3 hrs $499.00 G5000 Essentials 2.0 PLUS 3 hrs $549.00 Aviation Weather Radar 2.0 2 hrs $149.00 Instructor-led Training Class GTN Only GTN and Flight Display G1000 and G1000 NXi Aviation Weather Radar Virtual Duration 1 day Price $495.00 1 day $625.00 1 day $700.00 0.25 days Learn More In-person Duration 1.5 days Price $550.00 2 days $700.00 2 days $825.00 0.25 days Learn More We are pleased to announce that our eLearning and instructor-led training classes are eligible for WINGS credit.

Our ILT training focuses on scenario-based training. Virtual training incorporates interaction through downloadable trainers while classroom training incorporates hands-on use of the equipment. Both options build on your knowledge from the self-study of the pilot's guides, PC trainer and the eLearning courses. Participating in scenario-based training will develop your method of integrating Garmin avionics capabilities into your flight planning and flying. Designed for all levels of experience, our classes will provide you with the knowledge to confidently navigate through the national air space system. In the fall of 2021, we intend to resume classroom training at Garmin's Headquarters in Olathe, Kansas, a suburb of the Kansas City metropolitan area. This assumes that COVID-19 protocols can be safely followed as customer and associate safety is our primary concern.
