Dual GI 275 and emulated GPSS vs NAV mode on a KFC 150: buttonology, performance comparison, best phases of flight to use.

[user 21530]

I have seen a few threads on the GI 275's in the avionics forums and thought I would share some of my experiences with my dual GI 275 installation and how it interfaces with my KFC 150 autopilot and GNS530W. I find them superb, even with the small screen. The emulated GPSS function toggle is unfortunately 3 levels deep in the menu, however Garmin has it as an item to change to bring it up higher on the menu tree.

This is a video of how emulated GPSS works and comparing it in performance to NAV mode and also showing its usefulness in a missed approach at the end of the video.

Hope this is informative. I have other videos planned.
