Shop now. The doesn't seem to be supported by Jeppesen at all. On Garmin's website, it asked me to download the flyGarmin software for updates. It won't show me subscription information until I plug the thing into my computer and let it interface. I'll have to see more once I go back to the hanger and grab it. Can anyone offer some clarity, and if anyone uses Jeppesen for their updates, how do you get your obstacles and terrain?
Does anyone have a , and would OnePak be useful to get updates for it? In terms of navigation there are a few minor differences between the Jepp and Garmin databases for the America's.
The Jepp database contains only the ILS version. Only practical difference is if the GS is out. The Jepp has no stepdowns inside the FAF. Last edited: Jul 25, For several reasons, you only need to subscribe to the Nav DB.
My obstacle and terrain DBs are old and the data generally ignored. Am I the only one? If you already have the , it's a great tool, but I think the ipad has more to offer. Badger , Jan 30, The had somewhat better weather, but too small on the far side for me. I like the battery backup, the glide ratio function, panel page and being able to scroll the arrow across the map to see terrain elevations wife uses that to determine our glide ability We especially like the NRST function where it stays most of the time.
In an emergency, my wife can give me heading, distance, ctaf, runway real quick. She always has a good idea if we can make it or not, figuring winds aloft and near the ground. It is a little fun mathematical game we play on those long xc. Sure the W has some of these functions, but I use it on other pages. I built and wired my panel. Removing it would leave a standard size hole. Yes, it is obsolete and updates not available, but it still gets plenty of use.
Synthetic vision, airspace, engine monitoring. Both will remain in my plane for many years. RV10flyer , Jan 30, Oh, and my above comments were just an in the air comparison. On the ground, one can use the for navigation in the auto mode. You'll pay big bucks to buy mapping database updates from Garmin only to find that, after you've installed their just released update, the three-year-old highway you drive on every day still isn't shown.
I found many examples of this lack of accuracy all across the country when I was traveling all the time For about 8 years, if I was moving, there was a Garmin in front of me No cost. Better, more up-to-date data base. So we'd pull out the atlas. No biggie. Plus, we had pandora, slacker, netflix to keep momma entertained , gas buddy, hotel finder bring fido.
