Roger’s Runway: The big game in the sky

0 comments

RogersrunwaySuperbowlOnce again it’s that time of year where somewhere in the United States a massive TFR gets placed over some unsuspecting airspace causing mass confusion for pilots and air traffic controls alike. This year’s lucky winner is the Phoenix Class B.  Since everyone here on the Garmin Blog is in a Super Bowl mood I figured this would be a good time to rehash how TFR’s are displayed on all the Garmin systems.  On the G1000 temporary flight restrictions are shown with a yellow circle on the MFD and on the inset on the PFD.  For the GMX 200 a TFR is represented by a yellow ring when active.  For the portable units that display TFR information the TFR will show up in red.  If the TFR is not a pop-up TFR and planned ahead of time like the Super Bowl then the TFR will show up starting off in yellow. Once the scheduled time for the TFR to become active arrives then the TFR on the display will turn red.  The Garmin systems will not show all TFR’s that are active so make sure you do a final check with flight service to get the latest NOTAMS.
