Continuing to expand its market presence in the business jet world, Garmin announced a head-up display system to supplement its integrated flight decks. The Garmin Head-up Display (GHD 2100) delivers a 30-degree wide-angle view of pertinent flight information right in front of the pilot’s head, minimizing the time spent looking down and easing the transition from IMC to visual conditions.
