Default Garmin Aera 660 vs ifly 720

I read that Tom, but it seems it only displays what you are getting for a glide ratio not what you need to a fixed point. I do like the look and ease of ops with the aera 660. I talked with tech support for both units and niether will do what the 196 did, but Ifly is working on that in a next gen software. I also like the ipad/ foreflight that now has the amoeba for reachable glide. Its just alittle big in my limited cockpit space. In the mean time I found a used 196 for a 100 bucks on ebay


The VNAV feature is a glide to a waypoint.
