July 24, 2012 - Garmin announced new features
and capabilities for the Garmin Pilot app for
iOS and Android including support for the GDL 39
portable ADS-B receiver. When paired with a GDL
39, Garmin Pilot can display subscription-free
weather and ADS-B datalink traffic information
for even greater situational awareness in
flight.
“Garmin Pilot now offers more valuable,
safety-enhancing information than ever before,”
said Carl Wolf, Garmin’s vice president of
aviation sales and marketing. “ADS-B weather and
traffic, high-integrity GPS position information
and capabilities like split-screen have all been
integrated to provide the best picture of the
pilot’s operational environment – from the time
the flight plan is filed to the time the
aircraft lands and everywhere in between.”
The GDL 39 combines a dual-link ADS-B receiver
and a GPS receiver into a single product that
wirelessly streams ADS-B traffic and weather
information to the Garmin Pilot compatible
mobile device via built-in Bluetooth connection.
