New Low-Cost Addition to Radar Altimeter Product Line

New GRA 55 Radar Altimeter 

and GI 205 Indicator

This comprehensive radar altimeter solution expands upon Garmin’s high-performance, all digital GRA 5500 radar altimeter to include the GRA 55, a best-in-class and cost-effective radar altimeter designed specifically for helicopters and general aviation aircraft. The GRA 55 leverages Garmin’s patent-pending digital signal processing technology that works to provide smooth altitude tracking and results in a consistent and highly accurate above ground level indication, even in the most challenging environments such as rough terrain, tree canopies, sand and choppy water. The solution also includes the new GI 205 stand-alone indicator, designed to pair with the GRA 55 or GRA 5500, which provides a comprehensive, stand-alone radar altimeter solution. These two new products meet the latest design standards and ultimately provide pilots with rock-solid confidence of their altitude above ground. In addition to helping owners and operators meet recent FAA requirements for radar altimeter equipage in commercial helicopter operations, the GRA 55 meets the most rigorous altitude accuracy requirements, only previously seen in products for transport and military aircraft. And together, the GRA 55 and GI 205 help fulfill recent FAA requirements for radar altimeter equipage in commercial helicopter operations.
