Garmin Integration Support

Garmin Connext Flight Stream

ForeFlight connects to Garmin installed avionics via the Flight Stream 110, 210, or 510 wireless gateways, or via the GDL 60 datalink. These devices can enable convenient two-way flight plan transfer, and the display of subscription-free ADS-B weather, traffic, attitude, and GPS data in ForeFlight.

How to connect to your Garmin Flight Stream

GTX Series All-in-One Transponders

Garmin’s GTX 345 and GTX 335 all-in-one transponders meet the requirements of the FAA’s ADS-B Out mandate with the added benefit of ForeFlight compatibility. Depending on the model you choose, wirelessly deliver (via Bluetooth) FIS-B weather, ADS-B traffic, GPS data, and attitude information to your mobile device.

GDL® 50/51/52 Receivers

Fly with Garmin's new line of portable receivers and connect to ForeFlight. The GDL 50 includes a dual-band ADS-B receiver to display traffic and weather, the GDL 51 includes a SiriusXM receiver to display satellite weather, and the GDL 52 combines both receivers in a single device. All three devices also provide GPS data and backup attitude (AHRS).

GDL® 39 ADS-B Receivers

ForeFlight is fully compatible with the GDL 39 and 39 3D ADS-B receivers. The portable GDL 39 delivers ADS-B weather and traffic, as well as GPS data. The GDL 39 3D, with its internal attitude sensor, adds dynamic pitch and bank information to ForeFlight’s backup attitude and Synthetic Vision views.
