Elliott offers $50,000 Pro Line 21 trade-in credit for King Air
The limited-time incentive supports Garmin G1000 NXi retrofits that have been contracted and inducted during 2026.
The trade-in credit applies to qualifying Pro Line 21–equipped King Air aircraft upgrading to the Garmin G1000 NXi.

Elliott Aviation is offering a limited-time avionics incentive for operators of King Air aircraft equipped with Pro Line 21 avionics, providing up to $50,000 in trade-in credit for upgrades to the Garmin G1000 NXi flight deck.

To qualify, customers must execute a signed quote and submit a deposit by May 31 2026 with aircraft induction required by December 31, 2026. Availability remains subject to shop capacity and aircraft configuration.

The programme is intended to support operators seeking to modernise legacy avionics, improve reliability and safety and strengthen long-term aircraft value. Credits are available through Elliott Aviation’s aftermarket avionics department which specialises in upgrade programmes system integrations and ongoing support.

The company has completed nearly 450 Garmin G1000 and G1000 NXi installations in King Air aircraft over more than 15 years and reports a typical 15-day installation timeline for these upgrades.

“Avionics modernisation is one of the most impactful upgrades an owner can make to their aircraft,” says Bill Forbes, SVP of sales and avionics programmes at Elliott Aviation. “By offering meaningful trade-in value for Pro Line 21 equipment, we're helping operators reduce the barrier to upgrading while delivering a proven, reliable Garmin flight deck solution that enhances safety, dispatch reliability and long-term value.”

As part of its 90th anniversary year, Elliott Aviation also includes a first year of Garmin databases at no cost along with a Garmin MARQ Aviation smartwatch for qualifying Garmin full cockpit retrofit programmes completed in 2026.
