FREE CONTENT is not free to create.
Video content on Aviation101 will always be free to the public, but it all takes a lot of time and resources to produce and post.

We've all heard the phrase "Aviate, Navigate, Communicate." No company caters to all three of those better than Garmin. As the leading manufacturer of Automation, Navigation, and Communication equipment in the world, Garmin has partnered with Aviation101 to spread awareness of the types of technologies they offer in Aviation, as well promote the most effective and safe ways to bring the 21st century into your workflow, and onto your flight deck. In 2022, our partnership kicked off with a complete retrofit of N80991, our 1976 Cessna 172M, with a state-of-the-art Garmin Glass Cockpit. Stay tuned for many more amazing projects come from our combined efforts to promote the modernization of the GA fleet!

"See and be seen." Aircraft lighting is one of the most dazzling features of the aviation nightlife, but it's not all about the looks. For many years, we've employed WAT and AeroLED illumination on our aircraft from the landing light in the nose to the position light on the tail, and every diode in between. These two companies have been at the cutting edge of aviation LED technology, squeezing more lumens and reliability into smaller units with each release, and we're proud to partner with them to support the content produced on Aviation101. We proudly entrust WAT and AeroLEDs to illuminate our flights in the Cessna 172M, Cessna 150F, and our newest 2025 Sling TSi for many years to come. https://flywat.com/

Flying Eyes Optics focuses on providing carefully-engineered eyewear designed for comfortable use under headsets and helmets. I used to be a loyal wearer of a name-brand pair of shades, but now having worn only Flying Eyes for almost three years, I'll never go back to heavy and bulky glasses.

Learning to fly is hard enough without the added challenge of learning this new "air traffic control" language along the way. There are tons of apps to learn a new language, but what about an app to learn aviation radio phraseology and procedures? PlaneEnglish does exactly that in an interactive app that steps your through drill, exercises, and modules.

The coolest story I have about SiriusXM getting me out of a jam is from the Bahamas. It came time for us to depart toward Florida, but Bahamian thunderstorms had their own plans. My 3G cell service was very slow, so I couldn't judge a departure window... The GDL52 that lives in my bag delivered satellite NEXRAD in less than a minute. The cocktail in Florida tasted especially good after that flight back across the water.
