G1000 Ground School (on-line)
CAWG members who are interested in G1000 training. Others may disregard.
We are holding an online G1000 VFR ground school on April 27th at 9am. It'll include both parts and at the end we'll also cover the GI-275 and angle of attack (AOA) indicator found in our newer Cessna 172s. This provides ground training credit related to pilots, but everyone is welcome.
Please check your CAWG email for the Teams Link to join the meeting.
