Texas Aircraft Manufacturing is now offering a complete suite of Garmin avionics for the new-generation Colt-S and Colt-S LSA that includes Garmin’s G3X Touch flight display and GTN 650 touchscreen navigator. In a news release, Texas Aircraft Manufacturing’s customer engagement team member, Scott Musselman, said the updated avionics package evolved after flight schools began asking for the option. Musselman said, “Providing Garmin packages will be a means to reduce the time and cost associated with training students on multiple avionics systems as they progress. So, whether they want a sleek single display Garmin G3X Touch panel or dual G3X Touchs for a truly impressive PFD/MFD experience, we offer what they are looking for.” All Garmin-equipped IFR-capable Colts come standard with a G5 backup.
