1. Start by selecting either the Portable Tab or the Aircraft Tab in flyGarmin to add your Garmin aviation unit to your account.
2. The Communicator Plug-in program will need to be downloaded and installed on the first visit to flyGarmin. Log back into flyGarmin after successful installation of the Communicator Plug-in program.
3. G1000 owners will want to get the System ID number from the AUX page group SYSTEM page of the MFD in their aircraft before starting updates. It is also a good idea to have the aircraft serial number available.
