The WAAS-certified
GNS 430W and its sibling, the GNS 530W, lead the industry with
multitasking, integrated avionics
and cutting-edge WAAS navigation.
The standard GNS 430W features a
10-watt comm, and the GNS 430AW delivers 16
watts of power output.
Because of
standardized operation, when you
learn to operate the 400-series
receivers, you already know all the
basics of the GNS 530. And
transition to Garmin's all-glass
G1000 becomes a snap!
Integrate
Your Avionics
GNS 430W is an
all-in-one GPS/Nav/Com solution. It
features a WAAS-certified GPS,
2280-channel capacity comm and
200-channel ILS/VOR with localizer
and glideslope. Traditionally it
would take a host of components to
provide the capabilities of this one
smart box. High-speed 5 Hz
processing makes navigation
calculations and map redraw rates
five times faster than earlier GNS
series navigators.
Fly WAAS
Approaches
GNS 430W comes
with built-in WAAS navigation
capabilities. It is approved to fly
LPV “glideslope” approaches without
reference to ground-based navaids of
any kind. Featuring an advanced
15-channel receiver capable of five
position updates per second, GNS
430W meets the FAA's stringent TSO
C146a standards for WAAS "sole
means" navigation — providing
vertical and lateral approach
guidance into thousands of U.S.
airports previously inaccessible in
IFR conditions.
Get
High-Resolution Mapping
GNS 430W's
4-inch high-contrast display with
brilliant colors makes it easy to
read and interpret pilot-critical
information. Effective use of color
makes it easy to see your position
relative to ground features, chart
data, navaids, flight plan routings,
approach procedures and more.
Conveniently scan information from
wide viewing angles, even in direct
sunlight.
Enhance
Situational Awareness
GNS 430W
seamlessly integrates built-in
terrain and navigation databases,
providing a clear, concise picture
of where you are and where you’re
heading. The 430W's huge Jeppesen®
database, updated with front-loading
data cards, contains location
reference for all airports, VORs,
NDBs, Intersections, Flight Service
Stations, published approaches, SIDs/STARs,
Special Use Airspace and
geopolitical boundaries. A detailed
basemap clearly shows airports,
cities, highways, railroads, rivers,
lakes, coastlines and more. Using
information from the built-in
terrain and U.S. obstacles
databases, the 430W displays color
coding to graphically alert you when
proximity conflicts loom ahead.
Put It on
Autopilot
Working in
tandem with standard autopilots that
accept roll-steering commands, GNS
430W behaves like a high-end flight
management system (FMS) and can
automatically fly your aircraft
through holding patterns, procedure
turns and other position-critical
IFR flight procedures.
Expand Your
Panel Mount
GNS 430W is
easy to interface with a wide array
of optional sensors and tracking
systems, allowing you to see and
avoid hazards such as threatening
weather, lightning or air traffic.
With an optional subscription to XM
WX Satellite Weather™ and the
addition of the GDL 69 or 69A
datalink receiver, you’ll have
access to up-to-the-minute, high
resolution weather for the U.S.,
right in the cockpit. Information
includes NEXRAD, METARs, TAFs,
lightning and more and can be laid
directly over Jeppesen and
topographic map databases. With an
additional monthly service fee, GDL
69A delivers XM Satellite Radio to
your aircraft. Add the Garmin GTX
330 Mode S transponder, and GNS 430W
will also display Traffic
Information Services (TIS) alerts
that identify surrounding air
traffic.
