Meridian G1000

A PANEL AS COMMANDING AS THE AIRPLANE. Any pilot would love to command the new MeridianTM G1000 with its Garmin G1000 avionics and GFC 700 autopilot suite. Dual 10” PFDs display synthetic vision and WAAS-certified GPS, plus optional traffic and terrain. An expansive 15” MFD makes it easier to read electronic charts, manage engine functions, and display optional XM weather/audio and 4-color radar. And it can all be controlled by an intuitive new console-mounted keypad. The incomparable GFC 700 digital autopilot even has a jet-like panel-mounted mode controller for safer instrument flying. “Pilot in Command” means precisely that, in the new Meridian G1000. Contact your Piper dealer or visit piper.com. The Meridian G1000. Commanding. And a million dollars less than its closest competitor.
