Yes any FAA approved shop, AI or A&P can do it but it has to be ordered though a Cessna service center just like parts, but to get reinbursed it has to be done at a Cessna service center. The new cockpit guide MUST be in the aircraft to sign off on the upgrade. The cockpit guide is $295 or print...

just look on the AUX 6 page and it will have on the left for the GIA if it is a GIAW then you have WAAS, also just look in the POH. If you rent then any 2007 and newer 182 206 are WAAS and any 2008 and newer 172 will be WAAS, the post above is also a way to check, even on other airframes.

If you have SVT or in warranty then you pay nothing. If you do not have SVT and out of warranty you will need the cockpit guide at $295 or online, and $149 for the SW and 3 hours labor for install, keep in mind this upgrade is for WAAS G1000 only other non WAAS will be out later.

The new SW is out for the 172 182 and 206's G1000 service bulliten # SB11-34-21

Like I said the PFD has to be working to take off, if the MFD is in rev. Mode it IS the PDF. You will not have a MFD if it is in rev mode. Only PFD and engine instruments, there will be no MFD only a small inset map and you will have no ground speed info. Quote: Originally Posted by Gsim...

Check the POH and it has it in the Limitations list KOEL 2-10. You can with the MFD in rev. Mode showing it as a PFD. "PFD backlight must be working, if not MFD must be in rev. mode showing engine instruments for day VFR."

The Reversion mode will go to PFD or MFD if one dispay is not working, there would be no reason to press the button. You can not get a display to be a MFD unless it sees a complete PFD up, by the either net.

NO. You can not depart with out the PDF and engine instruments up and working. That applies to all G1000 Cessna's

The KAP140 uses the gray code from the encoder or in your case the Shadin could be the encoder and that is what you are changing. Installer may have intercepted the gray code from the encoder and then fed to the KAP, that does not sound like how the system should work per the TC.

I have the Vertex and the Icom, the Icom is way better, IMO

Here is the SA for the update.

"5) Avidyne Rel 9 will give the G1000 a run for the money. They really knocked it out of the park. Once they finish developing the autopilot, that is." Yes, but there is no OEM that will use it, so I do not see it in anything but retro.

"3) The new G1000 with GFC700 A/P is spectacular. Spend an hour learning how to exploit the integrated VNAV capabilities and you'll never want to fly anything else. " That is true, the G1000/GFC700 is a true FMS using WAAS, instead of DME DME VOR like the older FMS.

For the G1000 and G500/600, this months update for the Jepp NAV data will have a magnetic SW change for the AHRS. After the Jepp update you will get a pop up on the MFD that tell you to upgrade the AHRS magnetic SW. The new SW is embedded in the Jepp NAV update.

Max T and most other training books are too far behind the software that they are not much help but only the basics. The SW in most aircraft change each year and it is like getting new avionics each time on some upgrades. The PILOTS GUIDE (Big Book not the cockpit guide) that is online from...

Not all planes have the pilot profile, I do know Cessna does not.

Yes you would be paying twice. But because they present it in a better way, they sell their charts well. In reality the government charts may even cost more to produce then Jepp, it is our taxes pay most of the cost of them.

They get the info themselves and some from the Government info.

You will find you will look at the standby instrument at first but soon the tapes will be easier to use.
