GFC 500/600 Certified Airframes

Garmin is continually working to expand GFC™ 500/600 digital autopilot availability to a wide range of aircraft models. To see if your aircraft is currently certified for the GFC 500/600, you can refer to the approved model lists contained in the links below. Each approved model list for both the GFC 500 and GFC 600 is continually updated to provide our customers with the most up-to-date information regarding certification approval for a certain aircraft model.

How to Request that an Airframe be Certified and Added to the Approved Model List for the Applicable GFC Autopilot:

If you are interested in purchasing either autopilot for an aircraft model not currently on the approved model list, this Autopilot Interest Form can be submitted to express your interest.  Each request that we receive for a model increases the speed and likelihood of that model being approved for the applicable GFC variant.

Can How to Volunteer an Aircraft to be Used for the GFC Certification for a Certain Airframe:

Garmin is working to expand GFC 500 and GFC 600 availability to a wide range of aircraft models. To do this, we undertake a certification program for each aircraft model we certify. This involves the design, installation, and flight testing of the autopilot in the aircraft, and we are constantly looking for aircraft to use in these efforts. If you are interested in allowing us to use your aircraft in a certification program, please submit the Autopilot Certification Form to let us know. NOTE: This may involve you being without your aircraft for an extended period of time.
