It resembles a price check scanner from a supermarket, or the larger sort of PIN number consoles for a debit card terminal. But it looks great, and you can believe from the aluminum, rubber coated mounts that it was meant to be clamped to a Cessna's steering yoke. It figured out my height above sea level at home, which is 60 feet higher than the "lake front datum" I inputed of 240 or so feet, and self corrected. It has XTE and ETE and ETA and gives me five characters to name waypoints, not three. It also has location-specific sunrise and sunset times (which a lot of units have) and azimuth angles (which they don't). Plus if I want to sail to any of several hundred airports, I'm good to go. G So, yeah, I can easily see this in my nav station. |
