Piper Offers G1000 For Mirage And Matrix

0

Piper’s Mirage and Matrix single-engine aircraft can now be ordered with Garmin G1000 glass cockpits, the company announced this week. “The G1000 takes our premier aircraft to a new level of performance,” said Dennis Olcott, Piper’s VP of engineering. “The G1000 deployed in the Meridian — and now the Mirage and Matrix, as well — [provides] sophisticated avionics that give pilots the feel and capabilities experienced in larger, business-class aircraft.” The G1000 flight deck comes with three large-format, high-resolution displays as well as synthetic vision, the company said. The Meridian, Mirage and Matrix currently feature Avidyne’s FlightMax Entegra Integrated glass avionics as standard equipment. That option will continue to be offered.

“By adding Garmin’s G1000 to all of the PA-46 series of aircraft, we are providing our customers with a wider array of options than they have ever had on our flagship aircraft,” said Piper CEO Kevin Gould. In October, the company announced that it will install Garmin G3000 avionics in the PiperJet.
