NEW GARMIN PILOT™ APP UPDATES FOR WEATHER, TURBULENCE AND MORE

We’re continually responding to customer requests and ideas for Garmin Pilot product enhancements. Recent updates include a new daily outlook feature for Apple mobile devices that shows aviation weather 6 days into the future — a great help in flight planning. Want to preview terminal procedures on your computer? Our SmartCharts dynamic charting solution is now available on Garmin Pilot Web™. We’ve also added a new weather layer for turbulence that’s accessible on our web platform or Apple mobile devices. This helps you see and avoid areas of turbulence, so your passengers can enjoy a smoother, more comfortable ride.
