Aircraft Analysis Services Join FlyGarmin Platform

Garmin has added Brazos Safety Systems, Navi, and Jet-Care to the list of companies that provide postflight analysis services based on flight data captured by Garmin avionics and offloaded via the GDL 60 PlaneSync datalink and other systems. The integration allows aircraft owners the option of sharing data with these service providers.

There are three ways to upload flight data to FlyGarmin: automatically via the GDL 60 with a PlaneSync subscription; from a Garmin Flight Stream 510 wireless gateway to the Garmin Pilot app; or from Garmin GI 275 electronic instruments wirelessly to Garmin Pilot. Data can include, depending on how the aircraft is equipped, “GPS track, attitude information, engine data, aircraft total time, departure time, CO levels, and more,” according to Garmin.

Earlier integrations included FlySto, Crewchief Systems, and Savvy Aviation. Brazos Safety Systems provides flight data monitoring and flight operations quality assurance services for helicopters and airplanes. Navi helps pilots debrief their flights by analyzing in-flight audio and avionics data and providing insights based on the captured information. Jet-Care detects turbine engine performance and core degradation problems with its gas-path analysis programs.
