The last couple of days I have been seeing stories about the great new update just out for Garmin Pilot, but when I look for the update I find nothing. Am I missing something? Or have they suspended the update for some reason?
Good Morning,
The Garmin Pilot 10.0.1 update requires iOS 13.0+. If you have not updated the iPad or iPhone firmware, go ahead and get that updated and you should be able to run the new Garmin Pilot version.
Thanks,
Justin
This is great but I am a bit confused now.
When I select a destination airport and then load any given approach, (I used KPVF to KMHR) the graphical display on the map shows the route to the airport as my first leg and then return to my IAF (COLOM), even if the IAF is on the path and in between my route.
In reality, I would be flying to the IAF directly and then turn inbound not to the top of the airport and then back to the IAF.
Can some one shed some light on this for me please?
You are in planning mode...you will most likely be flying direct to the destination airport, at some point you will be cleared fro the approach and when you activate the approach you will get a direct to the IAF that you have loaded from your current position enroute. Also while flying you will be in nav mode vs. planning mode and a few other things change in the menu options. I was a little confused arm chair flying it too, but once I took it up and ran a couple of approaches with it, it all fell into place. In Nav mode it works just like your panel mounted Garmin box....Flight plan, select approach, load approach, activate approach or vectors to final....simple.
