THE FLYING LIFE, SIMPLIFIED
Streamline your flight prep, and enjoy your aircraft more with the GDL 60 datalink and PlaneSync™ technology. It’s the connected aircraft solution that automatically updates your avionics databases1, logs flight/engine data7 and lets you remotely check fuel and systems status via your Garmin Pilot™ smart-device app2.
GDL 60 is the datalink that enables our PlaneSync technology; it is compatible with GTN™ Xi navigators and select flight decks.
Automatic downloads via 4G LTE cellular or Wi-Fi® connectivity keep your avionics updated with the latest databases1.
Got fuel for your trip? Check the Garmin Pilot app on your smart device for a real-time aircraft status2 update5.
Upload your flight plan data to your compatible navigator at the airport.
In flight, you can use Connext® services to interface portable devices and apps with your avionics.
At journey’s end, your flight logs, EIS data and other info are securely uploaded1 into cloud storage for review7.
AUTOMATIC DATABASE UPDATES
Forget time-consuming manual updates via data card. Your GDL 60 offers database downloads directly to the aircraft1. You don’t need to be present for the process. Most databases will auto-synchronize across your avionics at power up.
FLIGHT/ENGINE DATA LOGGING
With compatible avionics, your aircraft's GDL 60 datalink can transmit flight and engine log data automatically1 to secure cloud storage7 after landing. You can view this data on devices running the Garmin Pilot app or share it online with your maintenance crew via the flyGarmin.com® website.
REMOTE AIRCRAFT STATUS
With GDL 60 and the Garmin Pilot app, it's easy to keep tabs on your aircraft from virtually anywhere2. When appropriately equipped, an aircraft dashboard page lets you check active/standby database status, as well as Hobbs, tachometer and flight times, fuel quantity, battery voltage, OAT, oil temperature and aircraft GPS location4.
MOBILE DEVICE CONNECTIVITY
By adding the GDL 60 datalink to your system, you can use Connext to stream weather, traffic, AHRS, flight plans and other data from your avionics to flight apps such as Garmin Pilot and ForeFlight.
ENTERTAINMENT INTERFACE
When installed with a GDL 69A SXM satellite receiver6, GDL 60 streaming capabilities can support remote tuning of SiriusXM® audio entertainment channels via the Garmin Pilot app on compatible mobile devices.
GSR 56 INTERFACE
GDL 60 can also act as an interface to a GSR 56 satellite transceiver with Connext satellite services5. From the Garmin Pilot app, you can utilize in-flight text messaging or initiate voice calls to help you stay connected from virtually anywhere.
