MSFS2020 Garmin G1000 Quick Reference Guide Posted on December 18, 2020 March 17, 2021 by jpgame Many of us will begin our Microsoft Flight Sim journey (yes it is a journey for some of us:D) using the Garmin G1000 glass cockpit in the Cessna 172 and when I began using it I have to admit to being a little overwhelmed by the options and buttons. In this first video of the tutorial series for Garmin G1000 found in most of the GA aircraft in MSFS 2020 we're looking at the functions of the buttons on PF.
The Frasca Mentor-G1000 (WAAS) is a single engine training device designed for procedures training with actual Garmin G1000 Avionics and represents the characteristics of the class of light single-engine aircraft typically used in general aviation.
While compact in size, The Frasca Mentor-G1000 (WAAS) is a high quality simulator that is capable of training pilots to fly integrated avionics systems such as the glass-panel Garmin G1000 found in Technically Advanced Aircraft (TAA).
