In accordance with Garmin SERVICE ADVISORY 1846 Rev B , the Worldwide NavData database for affected Garmin avionics GDU software configurations (see list below) has reached size limitations preventing future availability of this database. Jeppesen first announced the discontinuation of this database in the Jeppesen email issued August 14, 2018, when at the time the discontinuation date was targeted for Cycle 1910. Garmin was able to extend the database one additional cycle.

Important Note: If your avionics configuration (including GDU Software Version) is NOT listed below, there is no impact to your service and you will continue to receive the single Worldwide database. Therefore, you can disregard the rest of this message.

Affected Avionics Configurations:
  • Garmin G900X, G950, G1000, Cirrus Perspective, and Embraer Prodigy Integrated Avionics Systems with GDU software versions 15.09 and earlier.
  • Garmin G2000, G3000, G5000, and Embraer Prodigy Touch Integrated Avionics Systems with GDU software version 6.49 and earlier.
  • Garmin GTN 6XX/7XX with system software version 6.19 and earlier.
  • Garmin G500/G600/G500H with GDU software version 7.09 and earlier.
  • All GNS 400W/500W systems.

For Those Affected:
For affected subscribers, beginning Cycle 1911 (Effective Date October 10, 2019) Jeppesen will need to replace the Worldwide NavData service with the comparable regionalized Worldwide NavData services, which includes three regional databases (Americas, Trans-Atlantic, and International) that combined offer full global coverage.

International

For customers subscribing to the Worldwide service for the GNS 400/500W systems:

Jeppesen will replace the Worldwide NavData service with the three regional databases (Americas, Trans-Atlantic, and International) that combined offer full global coverage. Release of the regional databases will be delayed but expected to be available in JDM prior to the 1911 effective date.


For customers subscribing to the Worldwide service for the other avionics & software versions listed above:

If you believe your avionics configuration requires the regional databases to continue service,
contact Jeppesen Sales Support. If you have a dedicated account manager, reach out to them directly.

If you are unsure what GDU software version you have, visit here for instructions. Please note, Jeppesen does not have a record of your avionics GDU software version.

We advise you check the database coverage in the avionics after updating the avionics to verify coverage.

If you do not act to update your subscription to the regionalized Worldwide NavData service, you will automatically receive the Trans-Atlantic coverage instead beginning Cycle 1911.

We apologize for the impact this may cause to your operations.
