Garmin G1000 is an integrated avionic system used in many small aircrafts.  This  simulator simulates a primary flight display(PFD) which is used on Cessna 182T, 172S, 172R, 206H and Beechcraft Baron G58.  It can also be configured to adapt piston, turboprop and jet engines.  Most of the useful functionalities has been implemented in this simulator, such as navigation, inset map, flight plan, flight director, and autopilot.  Besides of that, nearly every nob/button is functioning just like they were on the real G1000.

G1000 is a highly integrated system, it is very powerful and also very complicated.  It is recommended that you have a real G1000 user guide from Garmin.  This simulator can be used by aviation enthusiasts as well as pilots to perform either an IFR training or just fly for fun.  There is a global navigation database included in this simulator, and you can fly any where in the world.

This simulator supports FSX, Prepar3D, MSFS2020, X-Plane and InfiniteFlight.  You can use this simulator either as a stand alone trainer or as an instrument for FSX, Prepar3D, X-Plane or InfiniteFlight.

You need G1000Bridge(X) to make this simulator working with FSX, Prepar3D, MSFS2020 or X-Plane.  Please visit http://www.simionic.net to download G1000Bridge(X).

PC/macOS only. No Linux!

Sim ionic has yet to publish a plug-in for x-plane Linux. Thus, this will not work with xplane if you are running it in Linux. I feel that should be clearly indicated on the App Store, so you can tell it won’t work before you spend $10.

Needs to make easier to connect to sim

I have been trying to connect both PFD and MFD in infinte flight simulator and it is extrememly difficult. If this could be made easier, it would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

Great for AP-coupled IFR Approach Fun

Great app! However, it seems to always crash when approaching an inner marker with Marker audio enabled (found on KPDX Rwy 10R ILS).

Very Difficult to Use Knobs

Graphics are great, but the knobs are extremely frustrating to turn. Trying to choose whether you’re on the inner or outer knob is a real pain. I wish they’d take a page from Garmin and set up their Sim knobs the way Garmin did. Also, THERE IS NO CENTER AUDIO PANEL ON THE PFD OR MFD VERSION. I tried to follow along with a King School video while using this, and it was almost impossible. Save your money and skip these Sims…..

More function

Great app. Wish they could’ve had more functionality by adding a steam gauge or round dial option

Good for VFR, but missing VNAV makes it a no go for my IFR training

Missing VNAV functionality, unable to declare altitudes for arrivals. VNV button non-functional for approaches. However, once you’ve manually reduced altitude to the faf using charts, it does capture the glide slope on the final approach leg. If this worked, it would be a usable substitute for the simulator’s G1000, but as is I had to scrap it and go with a second monitor instead. Update: I fly a real G1000 equipped trainer when able, but look to the sim for supplemental time. I’ll post a side by side video when I have time to clarify. But in short, yes your software can load an approach but it appears that I cannot modify the vertical profile. Unable to rotate the FMS outer knob to even select the altitude fields. Also missing is the ability to arm VNAV. In the real G1000 when you press the VNV button, you will see VNAV appear in gray until active where it turns green. In the Simionic app, I press VNV button and nothing happens. It appears that this app is limited to GS arm for final approach, but no VNAV arm for arrival and initial approach portions of the flight plan. Also, for what it is worth, this functionality does exist in the Laminar G1000 emulation included with X-Plane 12.

Great app, minor issues

This iPad app is a remarkable implementation of the G1000 functionality. I’m using it with X-Plane and as a standalone trainer. Since I’m flying a lot in European Airspace, the fact that this app only supports altimeter settings in IN and not in hPA is annoying. The developer had the idea to support that functionality since it is in the settings, but the app ignores the setting. It also does not matter if you have an X-Plane aircraft showing QHN in hPA; It does not cause this iPad app to switch. The app also supports custom profiles as in-app purchases, but the settings UI has a defect, so you can only select the bottom four profiles since the settings screen does not scroll up. Like I said in the beginning, overall a great app, but I wish Simionic would pay more attention to smaller bugs, since those add up and weigh on the overall perception of a quality product.
