Garmin GPSMAP 695 Color Aviation GPS Portable (Americas)

Bought this and an AirGizmos panel dock to replace the aging Apollo GX55 and Argus 5000/CE in my cockpit. Also added the optional GDL 39 unit for TIS-B traffic and free weather. Not only did I gain useful load by removing the old GPS units, I added a great deal of functionality that wasn't previously available. This unit is solidly-built, performs flawlessly and gives me more information than I can shake a stick at. Adding and editing flight plans is a snap using either waypoint identifiers or by using the map cursor. OBS mode is nice if ATC gives me a heading that takes me off route, then once cleared back on course, the waypoint sequencing resumes. SafeTaxi charts and approach plates are clear and concise. It may be expensive, but the traffic and terrain alerts alone are more than worth the money (considering the alternative!). All in all, 5 stars, works flawlessly! Highly Recommend! - Customer Reviews

Product Description Garmin GPSMAP 695 Color Aviation GPS Portable (Americas) With features that focus on aviation-only navigation and mapping, GPSMAP 695 is Garmin's ultimate portable MFD. Similar to the 696, the GPSMAP 695 comes with a large screen and detailed electronic charts — minus XM compatibility — at a price you'll love. See the Big Picture The GPSMAP 695's bright 7-inch diagonal high-definition sunlight-readable display makes detailed mapping easy to see day or night — you can even view an entire approach plate on the large-format display. For easy operation, the bezel around the screen includes soft keys and a joystick control. And with a fast 5 Hz GPS update rate, the 695 renders graphics and presents flight data smoothly and continuously. No Charts? No Problem. With the addition of Garmin FliteCharts®¹ and IFR map mode, the GPSMAP 695 has Class 1/Class 2 electronic flight bag (EFB) capability, reducing the use of paper charts in the cockpit. With FliteCharts, you can quickly find and view all U.S. NACO departure procedures (DP), standard terminal arrival routes (STARs), approach charts and airport diagrams. If the current approach is known, GPSMAP 695 automatically selects the correct chart based on the flight plan. When in IFR map mode, the 695 can display victor airways, jet routes, minimum enroute altitude and leg distance, much like found on paper enroute charts. Enhance Situational Awareness The GPSMAP 695 features a high-resolution terrain page showing hazards relative to your altitude and a vertical profile of terrain along your route of flight. It comes with a built-in Jeppesen database, and an Americas, Atlantic or Pacific terrain database. It also includes an obstacles database for the U.S. or Europe. Using this information, the 695 displays your flight route over contour terrain mapping. With information from the terrain and obstacles databases, the 695 monitors your current position in relation to surrounding terrain to provide aler
