Lead Story

Introducing the AXIS Build-A-System Planner


Garmin AXIS 8-inch portrait, 11.6-inch, and 8-inch landscape flight displays
FIG. 02

Garmin AXIS flight displays — available for certified and experimental panel builds through RWAS.

The new RWAS AXIS Build-A-System Planner gives aircraft owners a guided way to design a Garmin AXIS panel before requesting a formal quote. Choose the certified or experimental path, work through Garmin’s recommended build sequence, compare compatible displays and supporting hardware, and watch the retail total update as the system takes shape.

Each completed build can be submitted directly to Roger Wilco Aviation Services for compatibility review and special pricing. RWAS will review the aircraft, mission, certification path, installation requirements, and selected equipment before preparing the next step.
