Garmin Offers New Rebate Programs for King Air G1000 Upgrades
Garmin is pleased to announce two new rebate programs for select King Air owners and operators who choose to upgrade their avionics to the G1000 Integrated Flight Deck. The popular G1000 retrofit suite for the King Air series continues to receive exceptional response and provides operators with enhanced capabilities that
minimize pilot workload, increase situational awareness and provide NextGen avionics capabilities at a fraction of the cost associated with purchasing a new aircraft.
For a limited time, new customers may be eligible for one of two new rebate programs that allow them to receive rebate savings of up to $50,000 on a qualifying King Air G1000 upgrade. King Air aircraft with a factory installed Pro Line 21 avionics system may be eligible for a $50,000 customer-direct rebate, while other select King Air customers may be eligible for a $25,000 customer- direct rebate.
This rebate program is effective beginning January 20 through May 29, 2015, and is valid for the following aircraft pursuing a G1000 upgrade:
■ King Air C90
■ King Air 200, B200 ■ King Air 300
■ King Air 350
In addition to the G1000 upgrade, purchase of the Platinum or Platinum Plus package must be made to qualify for either of these rebates for King Air B200 and
300 series aircraft.
For additional information regarding these King Air rebate programs or for more details regarding the G1000 upgrade for the King Air series aircraft, contact Scott Frye at (913) 440-2412 or Scott.Frye@garmin.com.

Pilots N Paws® is an online meeting place for pilots and
other volunteers
who help to transport rescue animals by air. The mission of the site is to provide a user- friendly communication venue between those that rescue, shelter, and foster animals; and pilots and plane owners willing to assist with the transportation of these animals.
A general aviation transport
requires just one pilot volunteer
and is far more efficient and dependable than time-consuming ground transportation for these animals who are often in danger of euthanization. Volunteer pilots retain complete authority of their planning and flights, and can give as much or as little time as they like.
