View from the cockpit on approach!
I sat in the jump seat on approach yesterday on the way back from a business trip. The video is a little boring but I can testify that Pilot's have the best view of any office in the world!

Great vid... thanks for sharing.
I have a Q , and it is one of those questions that you know it might be something really stupid but you need to ask anyways.....
That Hawker has already a glass avionics panel with all the goodies.... Why did they have a additional Garmin portable GPS??? Backup maybe....

^ probably... the only thing I was making of it was as a backup in case of a electrical problem...
But Xm weather service sounds really good to. But aren't all these Glass cockpits come with XM as an option???

Most do...as an option. Consider in our DA-40, XM weather is a $5k upgrade to the G1000 avionics package. Or I can get it on the $$600 Garmin 496 mounted to the glare shield.

All I know is that I get SiriusXM radio pumped through the sound system in the plane and I love it!
