LPV Approaches, Priced for Your Aircraft
Big capabilities come in a small package with the GPS 175 navigator. With its bright, clear high-resolution touchscreen display, you can have the advanced navigation functions you’ve always dreamed of. Entering flight information is a cinch, and accessing every function is fast and easy. It’s equally at home in certificated aircraft or an experimental aircraft. And it’s the same 2” height as older navigation equipment and can allow you to keep the legacy composite CDI already in your aircraft to minimize installation cost¹. That makes GPS 175 the smart, affordable way to add next-generation navigation to your favorite airplane.
- Slim, all-in-one touchscreen GPS navigator for Part 23 Class I/II aircraft (weighing less than 6,000 lbs) and experimental/amateur-built aircraft
- Take advantage of WAAS GPS navigation with LPV approaches, which offer minimums as low as 200’ to greatly expand your operational capability
- Pairs with select Garmin flight displays, or integrates directly with your existing course deviation indicator (CDI) for cost-effective installation
- Visualize your entire flight plan, including departures, arrivals, instrument approaches, holding patterns and more on a rich, dynamic global moving map
- Wirelessly transfer flight plans and stream weather, traffic, GPS position and backup attitude via built-in Connext® technology to the Garmin Pilot™ app and more
An on-screen keyboard simplifies waypoint entry, and a home button provides quick return to the main page. For stability during flight, a lower display shelf aids in smooth operation, complemented by traditional concentric knobs.
Upon powering up GPS 175, you're greeted by a familiar Garmin homepage on the 4.8” display, offering easy access to key functions. Quickly navigate to maps, airports, flight plans, and more with just a few touches. The intuitive interface includes shortcuts for flight plans and Direct-to functions, with easy map panning and zooming. 
Intuitive Navigation
With GPS 175, building and modifying flight plans is simple. As you enter waypoints, our FastFind feature automatically begins searching for the nearest identifier as soon as you start typing, so — in most situations — a press or 2 reveals just what you were thinking. You can also create holds, insert Victor airways and corresponding exit options, and add departures, arrivals and instrument/visual approach procedures. Additionally, you can edit your route using the map screen; a handy "rubber band" feature lets you grab any leg of your flight plan route and move it to accommodate a deviation or ATC amendment to your flight plan.
A variety of dynamically drawn and displayed maps provide situational awareness and context to the flight plan by highlighting visual reporting points, navaids, SafeTaxi® diagrams and hazards such as obstacles, power lines and terrain. Plus, the Smart Airspace™ feature automatically highlights airspace close to your current altitude and de-emphasizes airspace away from the current altitude.
Add ADS-B Traffic and Weather
When paired with dual-link Garmin ADS-B solutions, such as our GTX™ 345 series transponder or GDL® 88 universal access transceiver, GPS 175 can display ADS-B traffic targets as well as subscription-free ADS-B weather data in the U.S. Or you can opt for the GNX™ 375 navigator, which offers the same capabilities as GPS 175, but includes a transponder for ADS-B “Out” and “In.” The ADS-B weather link provides in-flight access to animated NEXRAD imagery, METARs, TAFs, winds and temperatures aloft, PIREPs, NOTAMs and more.
When equipped with a compatible ADS-B solution, visual alerts help you recognize and avoid potential conflicts in busy airspace. Our patented TargetTrend™ relative motion technology offers a faster, more intuitive way to judge the direction and closure rate of intruding targets in relation to your aircraft’s position.
For example, if traffic is ahead of you and traveling along the same track but at a slower rate, the motion vector would point opposite of its indicated direction of flight to show you are overtaking the traffic.
And, at the start or end of each flight, TerminalTraffic™™ technology provides the most comprehensive picture of ADS-B equipped aircraft and ground vehicles in the airport environment. ADS-B equipped aircraft in-flight are easily distinguished from ground vehicles and taxiing aircraft, which are displayed using distinct colors and symbols. All information is presented on a simple, easy-to-understand SafeTaxi diagram with reference to runways, taxiways, hangar locations and more.
Cockpit Integration
The GPS 175 navigator interfaces with a variety of Garmin flight displays, including G3X Touch (experimental and certified), G5 (experimental and certified), G500/G600, G500 TXi/G600 TXi as well as select third-party displays¹. Plus, it’s also compatible with many legacy, composite-input based CDIs — allowing you to keep your existing CDI and have an easier, more cost-effective installation.
And for even more work-saving convenience, you can use the built-in Connext technology to stream information between GPS 175 and compatible Garmin portables and mobile devices running the Garmin Pilot or FltPlan Go apps. You can create flight plans at home and upload them at the airport. And you can stream GPS data and backup attitude information (from the built-in AHRS) to your mobile device or Garmin portable, making them even more useful cockpit companions. Better still, you can also share ADS-B traffic and weather information if you’re equipped with a compatible ADS-B solution.
Plus, our optional Flight Stream 510 installs in the memory card slot of GPS 175 to enable our Database Concierge database transfer and management capabilities via our Connext gateway. At home, you can download selected databases onto your mobile device by using the Garmin Pilot app. Then, once you get to the airport, Flight Stream 510 will automatically establish a wireless connection to the Garmin Pilot app and upload the databases from your device to your GPS 175 in minutes.
