Hi folks,
Sun-N-Fun doesn't start for a couple more weeks, but I got permission to post this a little early. Today Garmin released software version 6.00 for the G3X system, which adds Garmin's "Pathways" feature - also referred to as highways in the sky - which you may have seen on the G1000 and G900X systems.
Here are a couple screenshots of Pathways in action - first, GPS enroute navigation:
Here's what a coupled ILS approach looks like with Pathways turned on:
This free update is available for download from the Garmin website, and also includes a few other enhancements. Not only does G3X now come standard with support for the Vertical Power VP-X and VP-200, but it now also supports an optional secondary set of fuel calibration curves that are used on the ground, for example with taildragger aircraft. I hope to be able to use this feature myself one of these days, if I can find enough time to finish my airplane!

G3X Manuals (not quite caught up to this software version yet, stay tuned)
