Garmin Aviation PC Trainers simulate multiple Garmin avionics systems and provide you with an on-the-ground environment to learn the basic operation of your Garmin avionics, as well as offline manuals and additional resources.
The PC Trainer Suite Launcher 3.0.0.0 provides the simplest experience for installing your Garmin Trainers and keeping them up-to-date. Once installed, select the avionics trainer products you wish to use, and the Launcher will download them automatically. A high-speed internet connection is recommended. If a reliable interenet connection is not available, please see Offline Installation below.
Please note: upgrade to the 3.0.0.0 Launcher will install new verions of many of the existing avionics trainers. Some settings may be restored to their default state.
The following systems are currently supported:
Due to the graphics- and memory-intensive nature of this PC Trainer, it is recommended that it be the only application running on your PC. Even if your computer meets the minimum system requirements, the trainer may not function properly due to the unique configuration and processes that are utilized by your specific computer.
This application operates on Windows 7 and later (macOS® is not supported).
