The Piper team of advanced training aircraft is loaded with enviable avionics that rival, or outdate, anything you’ll find in today’s commercial fleets. Each boasts Garmin’s GPS 500W – a Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) certified GPS with high-resolution color moving map displays. WAAS, which provides lightning-fast GPS signal corrections, will soon be the standard at most airports for precision approaches. But Piper’s trainers already have that technology today.
It’s just one more reason that Piper trainers are the best in the industry. Students will be more than ready to meet FAA TSO C146a standards for WAAS “sole means” navigation, giving them access to thousands of airports previously inaccessible in IFR conditions.
High-resolution mapping is easy to read and interpret, providing superior situational awareness. Built-in airport, terrain and navigation databases clearly and precisely show you where you are and where you’re heading. Which all adds up to student confidence and a stellar educational experience.
