Garmin D2 Air flight test - pulse oximeter, direct-to navigation features, performance stats, altimeter, and digital logbook in a Cirrus SR22. How does the watch work in flight conditions and what can you do with this pilot watch when integrated with Garmin Pilot (Electronic Flight Bag app) and Garmin Avionics?
Note: Garmin sent me this watch to have a look at but I was under no obligation to create any content nor was I paid any fees for making this or any videos featuring Garmin products prior to this on my channel. I pay for my own subscriptions to Garmin Pilot and paid for all the avionics in my aircraft myself. This video is just to help you see what the watch can do and help decide if it's right for you.

That’s a sweet watch. I love seeing Garmin pilot on action too. I’m about to post a review of an app on my RU-vid channel to show people there’s a free option, but I wouldn’t recommend it if you’re flying a lot.

@StefanDrury 3 года назад
If all my primary avionics failed and say I was completely lost but could maintain safe terrain clearance (either visually or if in cloud by remaining above the grid lowest safe altitude) then having a "direct to" bearing to the nearest airport would be useful on your watch yes.

Hi. I see the touch screen is not so sensitive, good as apple watch. I cant decide between the G-D2 air and apple watch 6. Are there aviation apps for apple watch. The responsivity, quality overall in apple watch is much more better but knowing garmin is made directly for aviation makes my buying decision hard! Thank u in advance.

for your trip round the world, how do you plan to get from the Pacific Rim to North America? I saw one of your videos where you talked of going through Russia. I thought there were complications getting permissions to land in Russian airports. ... Is there a way through/around the difficulty? With your added fuel tank you should be able to make the trip from Hokaido (Japan) to Adak Island (Westernmost airport in the US/Alaska's islands)

Garmin Pilot vs AvPlan. Which one is best? Used to use OzRWY but moved to Avplan now. I have Garmin 650 in the cockpit - would Garmin pilot be better than AvPlan as it integrates? Are all the maps and pilot guides available in AvPlan available on Garmin Pilot or do I lose the local knowledge? Asking as considering Garmin D2 Air...

Is there any way to export the flight log that doesn't require Garmin Pilot? Having a subscription app required to export a track file seems quite irritating. Here in the UK, the defacto VFR nav app is Skydemon, almost no one uses Garmin Pilot.

Did you start learning to fly in a Cessna? If so, did you need any additional training when moving to the cirrus?
@StefanDrury

I started in a C152. Yes you need to do a transition training course to fly a Cirrus Aircraft which usually involves one ground school session, a couple of flights, and a checkride.

How easy is it to operate the stopwatch during flight? Can it be reset and restarted with one click (probably not)? Because when you navigate in an old plane, the old fashioned way, just with a piece of paper (with the waypoint headings and the corresponding times to fly this headings), the built in compass and a stopwatch, you need a good stopwatch. I think this is such an important function for a pilot and I have not seen it beeing showed in any of those reviews.
@StefanDrury
@StefanDrury 3 года назад
Good point, a stopwatch is an important aspect and something I use as a backup to my avionics stopwatch when flying IFR holds. Yes it does have a stopwatch, but you need to navigate to the stopwatch function then it's one click to start / lap / stop.

I have a question. How long does it take after the flight and after u shut down ur plane. How long will it take to get out of the airport. And also how long to get into the airport excluding preflights
@StefanDrury
@StefanDrury 3 года назад
As a general rule I like to give myself an hour for preflight and preparing the aircraft. So if I want to take-off at say 9am I won't get to the airport any later than 8am. After the flight though, once the aircraft is parked the shut down is a lot quicker.

Lots of nice integration BUT! Can you answer your mobile on it as you can on an apple watch. The Garmin Marq Captain doesn't have this simple feature even though it costs £1,700. So no leaving your phone safe below decks or in your back pack as you cycle, jog or whatever. What a shame!!

Hey Matt, what you can't see in this video is the replaceable filter that these fabric masks have inside them. My mask is cleaned and filter changed regularly.

Our regulations state we are required to wear a 'fitted face covering' which both of us are adhering to. Many thanks, stef
