When Max Trescott, 2008 National Certificated Flight Instructor of the Year, debuted his first book on then-new Garmin G1000 flight decks in 2006, the revolutionary glass cockpits were just gaining a foothold in the general aviation market. Now, roughly 15 years later, Trescott has built upon his expertise on the popular avionics just as Garmin has evolved its product line to incorporate touch-screen and experimental-aircraft versions—as well as the G3000 and G5000 flight decks now found in a host of singles, twins, turboprops, and jets.
