Here are the top features pilots say are so great about the PC-12 NG’s integrated avionics system:

1. The combination of track-centered synthetic vision and performance-based HUD symbology (acceleration chevron, dynamic speed bug, and Flight Path Symbol) makes it intuitively easier to fly precise approaches and departures.
2. The Cursor Control Device (CCD) provides avionics interface redundancy and serves as a stable platform in turbulence for the pilot to fly the aircraft with one hand and control avionics with the other.
3. Software-controlled menu navigation is simple and intuitive, with most actions just one level deep. Redundant hardware controllers allow direct input of important functions in an organized manner, which reduces cognitive workload.
4. The 4-display, dual MFD layout allows all critical flight information to be visible at all times. Moving map, Flight Plan, Checklist, Approach Chart, Radar, TCAS, XM weather, Vertical Situation Display, and TAWS can all be displayed simultaneously without having to swap back and forth between screens.
5. The PC-12 features one of the smoothest flying autopilots in the air, based on airline transport technology. It incorporates a true Flight Management System (FMS) that acts like an “electronic copilot,” integrating the functions of flight planning, navigation, guidance, and performance to automatically fly an optimized and efficient 3-dimensional flight path.
