The exciting news at Sim Flite Minnesota is the addition of a G1000 sim. After several delays, it is here now and is undergoing installation in the new Sim Flite Minnesota facility. The new sim is a C172-specific G1000 cockpit, and indeed is an exact replica of a G1000 C172. The autopilot is the integrated Garmin 700. It is of course WAAS capable.

Even though it is a C172, it provides a great platform for learning the G1000. Whether you are flying a C172, a Beech Baron, or your own personal jet, if it is equipped with a G1000, this is the ideal place to learn how to operate the G1000.

The absolute fidelity to the C172 G1000 cockpit was the deciding factor in selecting the C172-specific model. The G1000 sim is a great addition to Sim Flite Minnesota. But of course the non-glass "six pack" sim is still in business and will continue to provide a great training platform.
