Touch ... What?I fly behind a Garmin G1000 and found Frank Bowlins October article, Multiple Approaches to be of interest. Although he wrote the article about the GTN navigators, I found that most of what he offered does work in a G1000. However, one statement left me confused.

Key Takeaways:

  • Effective communication and teamwork with Air Traffic Control (ATC) are crucial for enhancing safety and efficiency, fostering a collaborative environment rather than confrontational exchanges.
  • Pilots should cultivate empathy for their passengers' experience, as the motion and sensations (e.g., yaw, turbulence) in the back of a small aircraft can be significantly more intense and potentially unsettling than perceived by the pilot.
  • A pilot operating under BasicMed certification is legally restricted from serving as a safety pilot, a limitation that requires awareness and adherence to available workarounds.
