Jet Access orchestrates third G5000 installation
The G5000's advanced flight deck provides operators with a next-generation suite of capabilities, including intuitive touchscreen interfaces, enhanced situational awareness and improved flight management systems.
The G5000 is considered to be industry-leading.

US business Jet Access has completed the third Garmin G5000 flight deck installation for its in-house fleet. With more than 20 years of experience in Garmin flight deck installations, Jet Access continues to provide the aviation community with avionics upgrades that enhance safety, efficiency and overall aircraft performance.

As a top Garmin integrated flight deck installer globally, Jet Access has extensive experience with systems such as the G950 in the Twin Commander, the G1000 and the G5000. The G5000 installation in the Citation Excel represents the latest evolution of Jet Access' expertise and highlights its ability to deliver seamless avionics integrations, ensuring operators experience the latest in flight deck technology.

“We are honoured to be acknowledged as one of the leading Platinum dealers for Garmin and a reliable source of premium avionics solutions,” says Scott Dillon, president of Jet Access Maintenance. “Leveraging our extensive expertise in Garmin flight deck installations, we offer more than just products; we deliver a complete service package that includes supplemental lift during downtime, CFO-approved cost savings, pilot training and ongoing support.”

Jet Access provides supplemental lift to minimise downtime during installation, offering access to three of its own upgraded aircraft and additional aircraft options for operators. This ensures that clients' flight operations can continue seamlessly while their aircraft undergoes the G5000 installation.

Although the installation process requires a significant investment, Jet Access delivers an exceptional return on investment through enhanced aircraft performance, increased reliability and substantial savings on parts costs for outdated avionics. As part of its full-service offering, Jet Access also provides mentorship and post-flight training through experienced pilots, which can be completed during the installation process. This unique approach ensures that clients are fully prepared to operate their newly upgraded aircraft with confidence.

The G5000's advanced integrated flight deck provides operators with a next-generation suite of capabilities, including intuitive touchscreen interfaces, enhanced situational awareness and improved flight management systems. Jet Access' experience speaks volumes, having successfully completed over 40 Garmin integrated flight deck installations, making it one of the leading dealers worldwide.

With multiple locations across the country including Indiana, Tennessee and Florida, Jet Access is committed to providing high-quality service wherever clients need it. Whether in the Midwest or on the East Coast, the company's expansive network ensures clients receive the support they need, no matter where they are based.

“The industry-leading G5000 integrated flight deck has been a very successful and popular retrofit programme for Citation Excel aircraft,” confirms Dan Lind, senior director, aviation sales, marketing and support at Garmin. “Jet Access' product knowledge and focus on client satisfaction is a testament to the dedication of its whole team.”
