Garmin boosts services for flyGarmin logs
With new integrations, aircraft owners can now opt-in to share their flight logs automatically with many different service providers. Examples include aircraft and flight analysis, engine performance and trend analysis.
By combining data from Garmin avionics with Brazos Safety’s advanced analytics, operators gain an integrated solution that automates flight data collection and transfer.

Garmin is introducing three new integrations for the flyGarmin aircraft flight logs. Brazos Safety Systems, Navi and Jet-Care have joined the growing list of aircraft analysis services, enabling pilots to automatically share aircraft flight logs from their Garmin avionics and receive customised reports on engine health, maintenance updates, flight analysis and more. These service integrations, coupled with a PlaneSync subscription, allow aircraft owners to get the most out of the data their Garmin avionics collect every flight.

From startup to shut down, compatible Garmin avionics can collect a wealth of information about each flight. When appropriately equipped, an aircraft flight log can include GPS track, attitude information, engine data, aircraft total time, departure time, CO levels and more. Following the flight, the data can be automatically uploaded to flyGarmin.com via the GDL 60 datalink and PlaneSync service. Data can also be transferred from compatible avionics via the Flight Stream 510 wireless gateway, which transfers aircraft flight logs to the Garmin Pilot app for uploading to flyGarmin.com. Additionally, for aircraft with GI 275 EIS, pilots can wirelessly upload data using the Garmin Pilot app.

Aircraft owners can access their flight logs via flyGarmin.com, where they can review flights, playback data and more. With new integrations, aircraft owners can now opt-in to share their flight logs automatically with many different service providers. Examples include aircraft and flight analysis, engine performance and trend analysis, aircraft record keeping and maintenance services and aircraft scheduling.

Brazos Safety Systems offers flight data monitoring as well as flight operations quality assurance services for both helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft. Navi is a tool built specifically for general aviation and analyses in-flight audio and Garmin data to deliver real-time insights and post-flight analysis. Jet-Care specialises in gas path analysis programmes for turbine engine operators, analysing engine trend data against in-house models to identify performance issues and detect engine core deterioration. Brazos, Navi and Jet-Care join a growing list of integrations that already include FlySto, Crewchief Systems and Savvy Aviation. Additionally, all flyGarmin users have access to exclusive discounts/services with the integrations.

All data analysis integrations are managed through the site. Once sharing is enabled, all current and future flight logs for the selected aircraft will be automatically shared with the service provider. Access to future logs can be changed at any time. Aircraft flight logs are available on flyGarmin.com today for aircraft owners using compatible Garmin avionics.

FlyGarmin users may choose to have their Garmin avionics data automatically forwarded to Brazos for FDM analysis and reporting, allowing operators to examine behaviour and safety patterns in greater detail.

By combining data from Garmin avionics with Brazos Safety’s advanced analytics, operators gain an integrated solution that automates flight data collection and transfer, enables safety trend analysis and exceedance detection and enhances operational readiness and regulatory compliance through accessible, data-rich insights.

“This unique Garmin and Brazos FDM programme offers an excellent opportunity for general aviation and FAR 135 operators to enhance their understanding of flying behaviours with a focus on safety improvement,” says Tom Nied, VP of sales and marketing at Brazos Safety Systems.
