EDEN PRAIRIE, MN. (November 4, 2026) – Elliott Aviation, a leading provider of business aviation services, today announced the completion of its 10th Garmin G600 TXi and GFC 600 autopilot installation for the Citation CJ1 and CJ2. The milestone reflects growing operator adoption of the Garmin upgrade and Elliott Aviation’s experience modernizing Citation flight decks.
The G600 TXi and GFC 600 combination gives CJ1 and CJ2 operators an opportunity to significantly modernize their existing avionics while continuing to operate an aircraft platform they know and trust. For Elliott Aviation, reaching 10 installations represents another milestone in the company’s growing portfolio of Garmin retrofit programs.
“Completing our 10th G600 TXi and GFC 600 installation is a great milestone for our team and, more importantly, shows that CJ1 and CJ2 operators are seeing real value in modernizing these aircraft,” said Greg Lambert, General Manager of Elliott Aviation’s Eden Prairie facility. “These are proven aircraft with a lot of useful life remaining. This upgrade gives operators a modern cockpit and autopilot solution while allowing them to continue getting value from an aircraft that already fits their mission.”
The Garmin G600 TXi provides a modern touchscreen flight display designed to bring advanced display technology and an intuitive pilot interface to existing aircraft. Paired with Garmin’s GFC 600 digital autopilot, the installation provides CJ1 and CJ2 operators with an integrated avionics and flight-control upgrade designed to modernize the cockpit and enhance operational capability.
The milestone builds on Elliott Aviation’s Garmin avionics dominance. The company has developed dedicated expertise in flight deck modernization and has completed more Garmin G5000, G1000, and G1000 NXi retrofits than any other dealer worldwide.
