Edison on The Mix

 

“Genius is 1% inspiration and
99% perspiration.”

–Thomas Edison (1847–1931)

American inventor and salesman

frequently worked more than 40 hours straight

What if…

John and Abigail Adams had been more concerned with themselves and work/life balance than creating a democracy?

What if… Abraham Lincoln (born on 2/12… coincidence? maybe) had quit trying after having a business go under and losing his first local legislative race (and then 3 congressional races and 2 senatorial races)?

What if… Martin Luther King didn’t have a dream and played it safe (and didn’t travel over 6 million miles giving more than 2500 speeches). What if he thought he was too young to have an impact (he did everything he did in a life of only 39 years)?

What if… Gandhi, Teresa, Roosevelt, Ford, Disney, Walton, Gates, Winfrey, Jobs, Stewart, and Ash hadn’t stepped up and worked hard. (What if the thousands of people who supported them hadn’t?) What if your police, military, firefighters didn’t?

What if… No one pushed it, risked it, and pushed it again (and again)?

Be obligated to your world (your customers, your people).

PilotPak: Databases for the entire aircraft, for a single annual price

Aviation databases in the cockpit just became more affordable! PilotPak is our newest offering that allows our customers to buy a bundle of databases for select Garmin panel mount avionics, all at once and for a single annual price. Not only that, the purchase of a PilotPak will provide databases for all of your Garmin equipment in the cockpit. The databases within the selected package can be used with any combination of GTN™, G600, G500, G500H and G3X installed in one aircraft. Each bundle option includes Garmin’s popular SafeTaxi®, Obstacle, Terrain and Airport Directory, and customers are able to choose between bundle options that include Jeppesen NavData, Jeppesen JeppView and/or Garmin FliteCharts®.


The more Garmin avionics you have, the more you save! For example, with a PilotPak Standard Americas subscription, you can enjoy 20 percent savings on databases for a single GTN or 60 percent savings with the inclusion of a G500 when compared to purchasing annual subscriptions to each database individually. When Garmin’s FliteCharts are included, the savings on databases for a single GTN 750 amount to over 30 percent and when combined with a G500, you save over 70 percent.
