Garmin announced that its GFC 600H flight control system for helicopters is available in an IFR design with a stability augmentation system (SAS). The new version includes collective control, giving the GFC 600H four-axis capability for the first time.
Leonardo Helicopters’ AW109 Trekker is the first model to use the system with the new capabilities. The company said the enhanced version helps improve overall mission effectiveness by decreasing the pilot’s workload.
