Default Converting GPS info

You can enter the airports into the unit as user waypoints. Same with
VORs and so forth. There is usually a limit on how many of these you
can have. Not the greatest unit, but it will work.


If you have software that allows you to build your waypoint list on your PC
and can then upload it to your GPS, it's better...

Myself, I use Street Atlas on my laptop and connect a non-aviation GPS to
it... Works great... It seems to have even the smaller private strips... Of
course, you have no runway or frequency information, but that's not too
inconvenient...
