Legend Smart Cub G3 debuts

By Janice Wood · May 5, 2010 ·

American Legend Aircraft Co. has introduced its Legend Smart Cub G3 — a certified Light-Sport Aircraft equipped with the new Garmin G3X multi-function display.

Available now, the Legend Smart Cub G3 features an integrated Garmin G3X “glass cockpit” system combining full primary flight display functions, such as attitude/directional guidance, along with electronic engine monitoring and detailed moving-map capabilities. The instrument panel also includes a Garmin SL-40 Com, GTX 327 transponder, PS Engineering PM1200 intercom. Backup primary flight and engine instruments are optionally available. The Legend Smart Cub G3 can also be equipped with a GX Pilot autopilot from TruTrak Flight Systems.

The Garmin G3X provides multi-function capabilities on a 7-inch diagonal display. Key features include the ability to display electronic charts and real time weather directly on the instrument panel. The Garmin G3X controls are a combination of soft touch keys and a joystick on its bezel, features borrowed from the GPSMAP 696 and GDU 370/375 series.

The Legend Cub is a two-place, single engine piston-powered aircraft designed to meet LSA category certification requirements. For more information: 903-885-7000.
