and overall aircraft safety, making
private jet travel even more
attractive. New avionics features
include SiriusXM graphical
weather with real-time updates
and access to vertical weather and
predictive windshear information,
allowing pilots to easily avoid
inclement weather during the
flight—offering not only a safer
flight but also a smoother, more
comfortable journey.
While the G280 is already
designed to tackle some of
the world's most challenging
airports—such as Lugano, which
has a short runway in the mouth
of a valley in a mountainous
region in Switzerland and
requires an extremely steep
approach—a new surface
management system that
alerts pilots to unsafe ground
and arrival operations makes
the landing an even smoother
process and helps to prevent
runway incursions. In addition,
dual electronic charts help create
a paperless flight deck, reducing
pilot workload and allowing
them increased focus on the
flight itself.
With its spacious cabin with
19 large oval windows, high-
definition entertainment systems,
and conference facilities, the
enhanced G280 takes private jet
travel to new heights.
