THE VISIBLE DIFFERENCE

The GTX 335D/GTX 345D Garmin PilotTM, FltPlan Go and
utilize two antennas mounted on the top and bottom of the aircraft, providing superior operational coverage. As opposed to having a single antenna that is mounted on the bottom of the aircraft, diversity antennas help reduce antenna “shading” caused when the aircraft turns or maneuvers. Diversity antennas also improve line-of-sight visibility and allow the transponder to more robustly send and receive ADS-B transmissions from other participating aircraft, further improving visibility while operating throughout the global airspace system.
Select G1000®, G1000 NXi and G3000TM-equipped aircraft have an elegant and simple path to incorporate a diversity transponder- based ADS-B solution using the GTX 335D/GTX 345D. A remote- mounted version of the GTX 335D or GTX 345D takes the place of the aircraft’s transponder and interfaces with the aircraft’s existing WAAS position source to meet ADS-B Out requirements. The GTX 345D is capable of displaying various ADS-B In benefits, including subscription free Flight Information Service- Broadcast (FIS-B) weather1 and ADS-B traffic on the primary flight display (PFD) and multi-function display (MFD).
ForeFlight Mobile applications, as well as other third-party avionics. Display capabilities vary, visit the Garmin website for full compatibility details.
The GTX 345D unlocks more capabilities for pilots by displaying ADS-B traffic and FIS-B weather on compatible products in the cock- pit. Exclusive features such as TargetTrendTM and TerminalTrafficTM further enhance the display of traf- fic within Garmin products. The GTX 345D also includes a dual-link ADS-B receiver that provides pilots with a complete picture of ADS-B equipped traffic. The GTX 345D may be integrated into the aircraft’s audio panel to provide ATC-like audible alerts, such as “Traffic: 10 O’Clock, same altitude, 2 miles” to help pilots keep their eyes out- side the cockpit when looking for traffic. FIS-B weather products in- clude NEXRAD, METARs, TAFs, PIREPs, winds and temperatures aloft, NOTAMs, AIRMETs and SIG- METs. New FIS-B weather products, including lightning, turbulence, ic- ing (current and forecast) and cloud tops are currently capable of dis- playing on Garmin Pilot and the aera 660. Additional Garmin display compatibility with these new FIS-B weather products is expected later this year.
In addition to integrated flight
deck compatibility, the GTX 335D/
GTX 345D interface with a variety
of other Garmin avionics, flight
displays and mobile devices. These
include the GTNTM 650/750 and
GNSTM 430W/530W navigators,
the G500 TXi/G600 TXi/G700 TXi
and G500/G600 flight displays, as
well as the aera® 796/795 and aera
660 portables. These transponders
are also compatible with the makes and models. The GTX 335D
The GTX 335D and GTX 345D ADS-B transponders have received Technical Standard Order (TSO) authorization from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and deliveries for select installations began in early April. Garmin will have an updated Aircraft Model List (AML) Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) in late Q2 2019 comprising of hundreds of aircraft
