Sierra’s Avionics Services
Sierra is proud to offer a wide selection of the latest
avionics instruments and packages for Citation, King Air,
Hawker and other aircraft, including most piston singles
& twins. As an authorized dealer for all major avionics
manufacturers, we can completely update your existing
panel to take advantage of 21st century technology.
Our experienced avionics technicians are highly
skilled in installing everything from custom STC avion-
ics suites like our G501SP, to today’s GPS, MFD’s, TAWS,
XM radio, WiFi, and many other aircraft systems. What’s
more, our in-house machine shop offers sophisticated
CNC tools, including a state-of-the-art waterjet cutting
system, allowing us to create a superbly finished cus-
tom-engineered panel for your new avionics suite.
Need to troubleshoot nagging avionics problems?
Classic aircraft have typically experienced multiple
rounds of avionics replacements and rewiring over the
years, often with incomplete documentation. Not to
worry. Sierra’s avionics experts have decades of experi-
ence in investigating, diagnosing and fixing improperly
engineered or documented retrofits. Bring your aircraft
to Sierra avionics and our technicians will hunt down
and repair those troubling squawks!
Garmin G600 Multi-Function Flight Display Suite
Garmin’s G600 enhances situational
awareness and safety and reduces pilot work-
load for Citation 500/501SP. The dual-screen
G600 works with your avionics stack, pair-
ing both a primary flight display (PFD) and a
multi-function (MFD) display in a single 10”
wide bezel to provide a fully certified upgrade
option for your cockpit. And with software as-
surance levels required for FAR Part 23 Class
3 aircraft, G600 is the ideal solution.
SVT Comes Standard
A scaled version of Garmin’s SVT synthetic
vision technology comes pre-installed on the
G600. Using sophisticated graphics modeling to cre-
ate a 3-D topographic landscape from G600’s terrain
alerting database, SVT provides a “virtual realityper-
spective view of ground and water features, obstacles
and optional traffic all shown in relative proximity
to your aircraft. SVT clearly enhances your view of pri-
mary flight data by giving it a realistic visual frame of
reference — especially in solid IFR or nighttime/mar-
ginal VFR conditions.
Enhanced Situational Awareness
Augmented G600 with optional Class-B TAWS (Ter-
rain Awareness and Warning System) and radar altim-
eter (ARINC 429 interface support allows readouts on
the PFD) for an extra margin of safety in the air. A trial
version of our FliteCharts® approach plates for the
U.S. come pre-installed on the G600.
Optional Jeppesen-style ChartView™ instrument ap-
proach plates and airport surface charts are available
to overlay your aircraft’s position on the MFD approach
display. FBO and other facility information for most
U.S. airports is also available.
Advanced AHRS
In place of gyro instruments, the G600 uses super-
reliable GRS 77 Attitude and Heading Reference System
(AHRS). Combining inputs from GPS, magnetometer
and air data computer, the AHRS provides an accurate
digital output and referencing of your aircraft posi
-
tion, rate, vector and acceleration data. It’s even able
to restart and properly realign itself while the aircraft
is moving. With the correct compliance kit, G600 fully
supports RVSM on qualified airframes, providing access
to previously restricted flight levels in RVSM airspace.
Keep Your Existing Equipment
G600 interfaces with and displays data from a range
of equipment, including avionics, radios, navigators
and audio panels. You can even use the G600 for cock-
pit control/display of heading, course and navigation
source inputs for autopilots. With the optional GAD 43
adapter, the same AHRS data drives the G600 display
to serve as your autopilot’s primary attitude reference.
The GAD 43e adds even more capabilities, including al-
titude preselector and vertical speed control, as well as
DME distance, synchro ADF, marker beacon lamps and
analog altimeter indicators right on the display.
Weather, Traffic and More
Easily combine G600 with a variety of optional sen-
sors and data links. Add digital on-board weather ra-
dar functionality with our Doppler-capable GWX 70,
as well as optional turbulence detection and ground
clutter suppression. The GDL 69 series XM receiver of-
fers weather and NEXRAD coverage for the U.S., as well
as SiriusXM Satellite Radio, and the GSR 56 provides
global weather data, radar imagery, voice/data connec-
tivity and Iridium satellite ground-based position track-
ing. Access Traffic Information Service (TIS) alerts on
the G600 by adding a GTX 330 Mode S transponder or
select from an available TAS or TCAS system. G600 also
includes a video input option that allows your MFD to
double as an EVS or live-cam video monitor.
