Honestly, if I had a 430/530 or other approach-certified GPS in my
panel, I don't know that I'd even invest in a hand held GPS. It might
be very nice to have your Garmin 396 interfaced with your 430/530,
GTX330, and SL30/SL40, but at some point I think the gadgetry reaches
the point of diminishing returns.


Garmin 396... WAAS capable
Garmin 430/530... WAAS ??? (someday. maybe.)


Yes, I understand, which is one of the reasons that I DON'T have a 430
in my panel. I'm not sure how much WAAS buys you with a hand held.
