Garmin announced that more than 2,500 aircraft are now equipped with its Autoland autonomous emergency-landing system, a milestone reached roughly six years after initial certification in May 2020. The technology is now available on more than 15 certified aircraft models, with 2026 certifications on four additional models including the first twin-engine jets (HondaJet Elite II and Embraer Phenom 300EV). Nearly 250 of the equipped aircraft were retrofitted after delivery. Garmin expects Autoland certification in 2027 on Textron Aviation's Cessna Citation M2 Gen3, CJ3 Gen3, CJ4 Gen3 and the Beechcraft Denali, extending reach further into business aviation.
