“Implementing the G1000 system is the largest and most extensive single change we have made since the AG - 5B was introduced," says John Hock, chief engineer for Tiger Aircraft. Hock was an engineer for American General Aircraft Co. (AGAC), and he's referring to that company's dehut of the AG-5B, an update to the AA-5 originally built by American Aviation, Grumman American, and Gulfstream American. The engineering team at Tiger Aircraft hasn't had to make many changes to the Tiger, because the airplane is such a capable design. Few in its class of single-engine, fixed-gear four-sealers have its control harmony and balance-not to mention its good speed and climb performance to match.
