I will be flying an aircraft next month that is Garmin 1000 equipped.
Have used other Garmin glass cockpit panels before but not the 1000. Can anyone recommend some simulators that I can use, either PC or IPAD based so I can get accustomed to the basic use?

THanks in advance.

It costs a small amount (~ £20) but if you buy the Garmin G1000 simulator for PC you can have two screens (set up as the PFD and MFD of course), use a joystick or yoke to fly the plane, set starting airfield etc. - a much better simulator in this setup than trying to run it on an iPad in my opinion.
Go to the Garmin website and search for G1000 PC trainer - it lists loads of aircraft, with specific trainers depending upon what you are flying.
