The FG1000 is a simulation of the Garmin G1000 glass panel flight deck.  The FG1000 was developed in reference to the pilot's manual for the Cessna NAVIII variant, as fitted to the Cessna 182, but is designed to be flexible and also work with other airframes.  For detailed instructions on how to use it, refer to the [https://static.garmin.com/pumac/G1000:CessnaNavIII_PilotsGuide_SystemSoftwareVersion0563.11orlater_.pdf Garmin Pilot's Guide].  Or read the Cheat's guide below.

we definitely want vector data.  Stuart is hoping that we might convince the source of the raster data we're using at present to provide it as raw vector data, but we haven't had any luck so far.<ref>{{cite web

Richard mentioned that if he were to implement approach plates in the EFB he'd probably use raster images provided via http and provide an http service within FG to do this, or to allow the EFB to use any other external web service. Other content for the EFB could be also provided as SVG via http.<ref>{{cite web  |url    =  https://forum.flightgear.org/viewtopic.php?p=259194#p259194   |title  =  <nowiki> Re: </nowiki>  |author =  <nowiki> Richard </nowiki>  |date  =  Sep 29th, 2015  |added  =  Sep 29th, 2015  |script_version = 0.36  }}</ref>
