The addition of the GNS 430/530 is part of ELITE’s continuing commitment to expand its GPS library and provide avionics choices that are representative of what is becoming commonly available in today’s increasingly high-tech GA cockpits.
The new Garmin installations will utilize the actual 430/530 hardware devices. Either of these popular GPS units can be added to existing ATDs or ordered as an integrated option for Advanced ATD system purchases. For existing systems where an integrated installation is not applicable a stand-alone version of each model equipped with a custom housing is available.
