I received an email from Garmin informing me of the upcoming software upgrade for my Garmin 430. I was wondering if somebody knew what this software is about?
A Garmin guy chimed in at another forum, and when he did so, here is what he had to say:
GarminGuyAtAnotherForum said:
The main issues addressed with this S/W is the DO certification for an approved GPS source for ADS-B. the ADS-B interface for our GDL 88 and the interface capabilities with the GTN, as well as TSO approval for the HTAWS rotorcraft version of unit.
He also said that the updated firmware made the VoiceFlight system (the one that enters a flight plan from voice prompts) no longer work, and that that was NOT a "bug."
