Default Garmin G3X and Synthetic Vision

Garmin has Synthetic Vision in some of their displays such as the G500. Do any of you that are flying with the G3X know if Synthetic Vision is on the horizon for the G3X??

Yup - it's already there! I sit in our half-finished -3 cockpit with power on the displays and the system in "demo" mode, flying around the High Sierras.....really looks sweet!

The G3X keeps getting features and functionality with each new software release. I'm really hoping that one day it will get HITS.

Try tapping "Garmin G3X price" into Google. Or calling one of the avionics vendors who advertise on this site.
Or, if you mean just the synthetic vision software upgrade, that is no additional charge.
